A lovely combination of drapey fibers! The soft halo and drape of the alpaca, the subtle sheen of the silk, and the crispness and stitch definition of the linen combine to make a surprisingly soft, surprisingly airy and light yarn.

The linen fibers do not take up the dye that the other fibers do, leaving a slightly heathered appearance.
