Silklin Sport is the big sibling to our popular Silklin Light Fingering. It’s a delightfully soft, smooth yarn with plenty of drape and a bit of sheen (more of a glow), while the linen gives it a bit of body and a slightly crisper hand. It’s an excellent choice for anything worn next to the skin and is suitable for lace, texture, cables, and colorwork.

Care: hand wash cold, lay flat to dry.
