Quince & Co Kestrel
100% organic linen

Kestrel is one of our favourite linen yarns. It's a 10ply / worsted weight ribbon yarn, which knits up super fast on large needles and has the loveliest drape. Like all linen yarns, it softens the more you use and wear it.
Quince & Co Kestrel is one of our favourite linen yarns. It's spun from beautiful organic linen fibre and is a ribbon yarn, like a small knitted tube, which knits up super quick on 6mm (US 10) needles. We love it in plain stockinette stitch and simple silhouettes - the better to show off its texture and drape. It's also wonderful in lace designs, such as the Deschain that Deb is wearing in the pic here.
Kestrel has the loveliest drape and, like all linen yarns, it softens the more you use and wear it. When you want quick summer knitting in lovely linen, Kestrel is perfect.

Please note that we are unable to wind Kestrel for you. It is quite a smooth yarn and our winder does not like it! It is best to be hand-wound.
