Hortensia has been a dream to add to Fingernemt for a long time. The beautiful purple, blue, and pink shades that just make you happy and are the ultimate sign for me that the gardening season has begun. Hortensia is dyed on our lovely MerLin Sock blend, which uses linen for strength instead of nylon. In addition, the yarn is not superwash treated, making it a sustainable alternative for those who don't want plastic in their yarn.
80% non-superwash merino, 20% linen. If you are looking for a lovely natural yarn without plastic (nylon, polyester, etc.) and which is not superwash treated, look no further. This yarn, with a yardage of 400 meters per 100 g, is the ultimate eco-friendly yarn. The amount of linen provides stability and strength to the yarn so that it doesn't fall apart when used as sock yarn AND it is simply an ultra-lovely yarn for summer wear, as the linen has a cooling effect.
Need a larger quantity? If the stock isn't enough for your next big project, don't hesitate to send me a message. I'd be happy to do a special dye job for you, so you're guaranteed a common thread (or a blue one!) throughout your knitting.
