Price is for THREE skeins of this beautiful yarn. Studio Linen is a DK weight 100% linen yarn that has a very silky feel to it. It's made from 85% recycled rayon-linen DK fiber, sorted from selected wastage and produced using an eco-friendly hydrolysis method and 15% premium natural linen. Linen itself comes from the flax plant which does not require irrigation. Studio Linen has a very silky feel to it, so we do not recommend winding it on a swift and ball winder because the yarn has a tendency to tangle. This is one yarn where it might be better to wind it by hand into an *old school* type of ball. Studio Linen has a slight sheen to it, a soft drape, and excellent stitch definition. YARDAGE: 50 gm skein containing 120 m/131 yds KNIT GAUGE: 21 to 22 sts & 28 to 30 rows = 10 cm/4 in, using 3.75 to 4 mm (US 5 to 6) needles RECOMMENDED NEEDLE/HOOK SIZE: Needle size - 3.75 to 4 mm (US 5 to 6) Hook size - 4.5 to 5 mm (US 7 to H-8)
