Summarized by Shop
Kestrel is a new take on a simple linen yarn. A Belgium-grown organic linen spun into a ribbon structure.
Kestrel knits up quickly at 3½ to 4 stitches to the inch. Its flat surface adds a slight texture to simple knit and purl stitches. But we think the best thing about it is its incredible drape. And like all things linen, woven or knit
