Approx. 100 (100) 200 (200) 300 (300) g of Lino Muka from Wollen Berlin (100% Linen ; 50 g = 245 m)

I received mini skeins as a gift, but unfortunately, they didn’t come with color names. I checked the colors on the Wollen Berlin
website, but I’m having trouble matching them accurately. Below, I’ve listed the colors that seem to correspond to what I received,
but there might be some inaccuracies:
Snow White; Grass Green; Royal blue; Cameo Rose; Mother of Pearl; Light Rose; Moss; Primerose

OTHER YARN SUGGESTION: Flyss from Handmaiden Fine Yarn (65% silk and 35% linen) held single (400 meters per 100 g), Isager Bomulin in double stranding (65% cotton, 35% linen ; 50 g = 210 m)
