Knitty Gritty Fiber Co Soft Linen Fingering Weight

 We fell in love with Knitty Gritty Fiber Co Soft Linen Fingering at first sight.  Made from a unique combination of linen, alpaca, and tussah silk, this yarn is like nothing you've seen before.  It has a slightly rustic look, with a bit of unexpected texture, but it's soft and has magnificent drape.  The yarn absorbs the dye gently, resulting in soft, subtle colorways. The silk adds a slight sheen, the alpaca adds a bit of plump volume, and the linen gives excellent stitch definition.  It's perfect for lightweight sweaters, but also works beautifully in lace shawls. It's a true fingering weight and works perfectly as a dk weight if you hold two strands together.
