BC Garn Lino is a lustrous, yet rustic, linen yarn. Lino is suitable for hand knitting, crochet, weaving and machine knitting all kinds of garments. It would be perfect for a breezy Outline Tank or Tee by Jessie Maed, Sol Tank by Jacqueline Cieslak or a French Market Tote by Petite Knit for something fun and different!
Lino is softer than most pure linen yarns. The more linen is used the softer and more beautiful it becomes.

Our favorite method for washing all hand knits! Fill a sink or basin with cool water and submerge the fabric in water, gently squeezing out any air bubbles so that the piece can remain under water without being held there. Soak work for 20-30 minutes, allowing fabric to become completely saturated. Remove excess moisture by rolling your fabric between clean, dry towels with light pressure. Lay fabric flat and shape to air dry.
