Linen Quill Worsted

Linen Quill Worsted is a worsted weight yarn in a mix of highland wool, alpaca, and linen that is practical, knit-able, durable, but most of all, blow-you-away beautiful! Just like it sounds, Linen Quill Worsted is our fingering-weight Linen Quill plumped up to a gorgeous worsted weight. The same fine highland wool, alpaca, and linen blend, the wool adds springiness and durability, while alpaca adds lovely long-fiber softness, and the linen... Only 15% of the mix but critical to this yarn's unique character! Its tendency to sprout out of the fiber lends a slightly rustic texture, while the way linen takes dye differently than animal fibers gives the yarn a beautiful depth and fascination. Although we no longer sell this yarn, we do have lots of great Linen Quill Worsted substitutes. Check out our yarns with similar gauge and fiber!
