Ramie Linen Yarn | Light Comfortable Natural

Two of the most ancient fibres, Ramie and Linen, are combined to create this beautiful natural yarn with a linen-like feel and a gentle springiness to the touch.

Ramie and Linen threads are gently plied together to craft a unique yarn which has all the wonderful natural properties of both fibres. 

Weave, knit or crochet Habu Textiles Ramie Linen yarn to create a wonderful fabric which is strong, light, durable, absorbent and comfortable to wear and ideal for warm weather. Ramie Linen "Chibi" yarn can also be dyed and will keep its shape well. 

Ramie and Linen have been used for thousands of years for the creation of textiles and both are bast fibres, derived from plant stalks and grown sustainably.
