Yarn Details

• • Pattern’s original yarn: Sport weight (175m/50g — 70% linen, 30% silk)
    Shown in Picture: Gepard Garn HørSilke (70% French Linen, 30% Tussah Silk) in colour No.144
  • Our Recommendation
    Knit in LITLG Yarn Equivalent: LITLG Bamboo Lace, held double — bamboo is a plant fibre with the same cool, drapey hand as linen, making it the closest LITLG match for the silky-linen feel of this design
  • Effective weight: Fingering-adjacent (~400m/100g when held double)
  • Skein: 800m / 100g
  • Gauge: 22 sts and 27 rows = 10 x 10 cm in Stockinette after blocking
  • Needles: 4.0 mm (US 6) main, 3.5 mm (US 4) for neckline

Choose Your Base

• • LITLG Bamboo Lace held double (800m/100g, ~400m effective per skein) — the original recommendation; a silky, drapey plant-fibre echoing the cool hand of the linen-silk original.
  • LITLG Silk Bourette (560m/100g) — new. Pure silk, made of 100% bourette silk. Bourette silk is made of silk waste created during silk processing: the short, leftover silk fibres are spun into a new yarn. It has a rustic, uneven look and is less shiny than other types of silk. This is the perfect yarn for summer tops. Knit as a single strand (~21 sts on a 3.75mm needle).
