Aristo – Merino Wool – Linen

Description

Aristo – Merino Wool – Linen is a single ply yarn. It’s soft with a subtle tweed effect, fingering weight.

The natural linen varies in thickness to give the yarn a textured finish. When dyed, the merino takes the color, while the linen resists the dye and stays white. This creates the heathered effect!

Aristo is ideal for summer and mid-season items. Such as shawls, sweaters, cardigans, and lightweight tops.

Thanks to its composition, it gives a slightly more structured effect.
Our yarns are hand-dyed, so you need to plan the quantity needed for your projects, as the color may vary from one dye lot to another. We take care to reproduce the color of our images as faithfully as possible, however, screen colors may vary.

So the color of the skeins you receive may vary slightly from the photo shown. For a more uniform knit, I recommend alternating your skeins.

For care, although Aristo is washable (sw), I recommend washing your knits in cold water, by hand, and laying them flat to dry.
