De Rerum Natura Antigone

About De Rerum Natura Antigone

1. Antigone is a 100% Organic French linen yarn in a sport weight by De Rerum Natura. It is made from 10 strands of flax and has a very smooth appearance.  The overall appearance is quite silky and quite different from traditional linen yarns.  It has a lovely drape and so you can use larger needles to make the most of this, or it's equally at home with fine needles to make a more dense fabric.  Either way it will look fabulous.  This is a great yarn for any type of summer garment or accessory.
   
   
   
   The flax is French grown using organic methods and then spun in Italy, returning to France for dyeing and the finishing processes. It wears and washes well, becoming softer over time.  This is a hard wearing yarn that will look good for many seasons.  It is also machine washable.
