Aurelie, 50 g

Aurelie is a high-quality cotton, viscose and linen blend yarn for luxurious summer knits. Aurelie is a soft plant-fibre yarn with a lively texture, made from pure cotton and linen combined with cellulose-based viscose. The yarn comes in 9 beautiful pastel shades, enhanced by naturally coloured linen fibres that create a refined melange effect, while the viscose fibres add a gentle sheen. The yarn is suitable for both knitting and crochet. In addition to basic stitches, Aurelie works beautifully for lace patterns and textured knitting, whether you are making tops, sweaters, shawls or even summer sun hats. Garments made from Aurelie are lightweight and breathable. They absorb moisture well and become softer and even better with every wash. Aurelie is a special edition yarn, meaning that only a limited batch has been produced. It will be available only while stocks last. The yarn is designed in Germany and manufactured in Turkey.
