New in the Shop: Linen Love – summery linen yarn with a gradient
With Linen Love, a yarn that embodies pure summer is coming to the shop. The multicolor gradient yarn from Austermann combines natural fibers with a modern look and is ideal for airy knitting and crocheting projects.
The high linen content of 89% ensures a pleasantly cool wearing comfort – perfect for warm days. Cotton provides additional softness, while a small amount of polyamide ensures stability. The result is light, wearable pieces with a calm, harmonious color gradient.
Even with simple patterns, Linen Love shows its strength: knitted in stockinette stitch, the color gradient comes into its own particularly clearly. If you want to achieve an expressive result with little pattern effort, this is the right yarn.
Linen Love is also perfectly suited for crochet projects. Whether net patterns, openwork designs or airy surfaces – the yarn looks modern, natural and remains comfortable on the skin even in summer temperatures.
