Lion Brand Touch of Linen Yarn – Cotton & Linen Blend

Naturally beautiful, wonderfully breathable, and perfect for warm-weather creations!

Discover the beauty of natural fibers with Touch of Linen by Lion Brand, a lovely worsted-weight yarn made from 51% cotton and 49% linen. This thoughtfully balanced blend combines the softness and comfort of cotton with the strength, breathability, and beautiful texture of linen, creating a versatile yarn that's perfect for knitting and crochet.

What makes Touch of Linen so special is its relaxed, natural appearance and beautiful drape. Unlike traditional wool yarns, this plant-based blend feels cool and breathable against the skin, making it an excellent choice for lightweight sweaters, summer tops, cardigans, shawls, and accessories.

The linen fibers provide durability and structure, while the cotton adds softness and comfort. Best of all, linen naturally becomes softer with washing and use, meaning your handmade creations can become even more comfortable over time!

Touch of Linen is especially wonderful for warm climates, where breathable fabrics are a must. Its sophisticated color palette and subtle texture create garments with a timeless, effortless style.

Whether you're crocheting a breezy summer top, knitting a casual cardigan, or creating beautiful home accessories, Touch of Linen brings natural elegance to every stitch.

Why Choose a Cotton & Linen Blend?

Cotton and linen are two wonderful natural plant fibers, each bringing something special to your handmade projects.

Cotton provides softness, comfort, and excellent moisture absorption, while linen adds strength, breathability, and beautiful drape. Together, they create a durable fabric that allows air to circulate, helping keep you comfortable even during warmer weather.

Unlike wool, this cotton-linen blend contains no animal fibers, making it a wonderful option for anyone who prefers plant-based yarns.
