This beautiful Limited-Edition yarn comes in a generous 150-gram ball and is made from a lyocell-linen blend that glows in vibrant and cheerful gradient colourways.

Perfect for crocheting, thanks to the crispness of the linen and the softness of the Lyocell. You can also knit with Mooi to create fresh and summery garments. One ball makes a beautiful crocheted shawl - a free pattern than comes with the yarn!

Antigone

Joni by Natasja Hornby https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/joni-12
3 to 5 balls of Antigone

Composed of ten strands of well-twisted combed linen, Antigone has a smooth, silky, fresh hand. Perfect for knitting mid-season jumpers and little tops for the warm weather, a lace cardigan to go with a pretty dress or even crocheting a shopping bag!

Antigone is made from flax grown in Normandy by the Terre de lin cooperative as part of a project to return to ancient cultivation practices aimed at preserving the soil and producing high quality fibres without chemical inputs. These long fibres are wet-spun in Lithuania with great care to create a regular, soft and naturally shiny yarn. The yarn is then spun and dyed in France.
