Light worsted/DK weight Flax Down comes from farm and field. A blend of baby alpaca, extra fine merino and linen, Flax Down is a very special single ply yarn, full of gentle charm and natural beauty. We love how its undyed linen casts the entire palette in a soft, tweedy haze. Knit with a range of colors or just your favorite one alone for a sumptuous wrap or a cozy sweater, a simple knit or a granny square... All gorgeous in Flax Down! Although we no longer sell this yarn, we do have some great Flax Down substitutes. Check out these similar yarns!
