What a treat! Just as the weather is turning, we have more of our favorite organic linen from de rerum natura! We have nine (that’s right, NINE!) new colors of Antigone in stock. As we get a limited quantity of this gorgeous yarn from France every spring, we’re absolutely thrilled to have these new hues in space. This show stopping spring yarn is a favorite, so be sure to head to the shop to grab yours before it is gone.
Antigone has an ultra smooth hand, perfect for warm weather knitting. We’ve included some spring knitting inspiration below.
