Shibui Linen in Tar

Shibui Linen is a fingering weight yarn with a distinctive chain-plied structure and a cool, fluid hand. The linen fiber gives the yarn a crisp, breathable feel with a subtle natural sheen, while the chainette-style construction softens the firmness typically associated with linen yarns. This structure adds lightness and flexibility, creating a strand that feels airy yet durable. The yarn relaxes and softens beautifully with washing and wear, developing an increasingly fluid drape over time. It works up into a fabric with elegant movement, soft texture, and a refined, modern finish.
