About This Yarn

• Our 40-Color Bundle gives you 40 of the most amazing colors at your fingertips, an invitation to the most vibrant places in your imagination! Marvel at a row of rich Golden Green next to luminous Magnolia Blossom, tart Lemon Lime followed by earthy Kiln Red... Gorgeous!
• Or choose from two glorious 20-Color Bundles: Full Bloom and Beach Walk. The joyful Full Bloom palette calls to mind a dazzling garden in peak season, while the lovely Beach Walk palette has an earthy calmness, evoking sand, stone, and water. (Note that the 40-Color Bundle is not these 2 bundles together... It's its own palette!)
• Behind all this color play is the serious beauty of Linen Quill, a longtime customer favorite, loved for its natural complexity. Only available in bundles, Minis are the same Linen Quill you love: 50% fine highland wool for springiness, 35% alpaca for softness, and 15% linen for depth in the color and an appealing rustic quality.
• You will have tons of ideas for your Minis, but for even more inspiration, check out our Linen Quill Minis (and Linen Quill) knitting patterns, and be transported to a breathtaking world of color!
• Curious which colors of Linen Quill are included in which palettes? This Color Guide lists them all out for you!
• Note that Linen Quill Minis and 100-gram skeins of Linen Quill do not share dye lots. If you’re planning to use different sizes of the same color, please keep this in mind!
