Flax is a 100% linen yarn, available in a wide range of solid shades. Flax blooms and softens beautifully with each trip through the washing machine. Linen wears very well, but it needs machine washing to look and feel its best. So many uses for this yarn, we can't list them all, but it's great for household use (curtains, table runners, guest towels, napkins and then doubled up 2 stranded for placemats) and warm weather clothing (cardigans, skirts, tank tops, pullovers, you name it) and wonderful for lace work too (shawls, stoles, scarves) because it keeps the lace definition. Easy care--it can be pressed with a lot of steam for beautiful drape.

Fast service!
I needed some sport weight linen for a special project. Not only did Handknitting have it but they had the brand and colors I was looking for at a really nice price.
