🧶 Fiona says…
If you’re looking for a yarn to keep you cool through the warmer months, Viking Linus is a fabulous choice. Linen has a lovely natural texture that softens beautifully with every wash, while the cotton makes it comfortable to knit and wear from the very first stitch. I’d choose this for lightweight jumpers, summer cardigans or a gorgeous shawl to throw over your shoulders on cooler evenings.
