70% bamboo/30% linen 4ply (100g)

A gorgeous rustic yarn which takes the dye really well with either procion mx or natural dyes.

As with a traditional linen yarn, it will soften the more it is handled, making this a wonderful yarn for garments that will last a long time. The bamboo gives it a gentle shine. Fabric knitted in this yarn blocks out nicely and this is the perfect summer garment yarn.

Suitable for a wide range of projects from washcloths, craft knits, garments and accessories.

Dyes beautifully with our procion mx (fibre reactive) or natural dyes. Great for indigo and woad dyeing.

(Note: We recommend scouring linen/bamboo yarns first with synthrapol and sodium carbonate for best results).
