Thread Collective is proud to bring you premium-quality linen yarn for your creative needs. We have sourced our yarns directly from world-renowned brands like Venne, Maurice Brassard and Swiss Mountain Silk so your material quality is guaranteed!
Linen yarn is a plant-based yarn spun out of the long, straight fibres of the flax plant. Linen fibre is highly regarded for its strength, inelasticity, and lustrous character, as well as its ability to produce cool, porous, and easily wrinkled garments. While it has less elasticity than cotton, linen does offer superior strength. Fabrics made with linen yarn can be machine-washed, tumble-dried, hand-washed, or dry-cleaned.
Linen weaving yarns and linen knitting yarns are known to be easy to dye, resistant to pilling and static, antibacterial, and eco-friendly due to their renewable source and biodegradability.
Linen is a great choice for warm-weather garments, such as summer tops, wraps, and more due to its lightweight and crisp stitch definition. It is also often used in warps that require high tension and very little stretch. When you first use a bast linen fibre or yarn, it can feel rigid but with use and heat the fibres break in making the fibre comfortable, breathable and long-lasting yarn.
We have a selection of yarns available. From 100% linen yarn, and linen knitting yarn to our blends of linen silk yarn and cotton-linen yarn. Our yarns can be used across a variety of different projects.
If you’re working on a fine linen project our wet-spun linen yarns will be the ideal choice. Or if you are looking for something more durable for a weaving, textile or basket project our raw organic linen yarn is a great option. All of our yarns are suitable for warp or weft. Our cotton and linen yarn blends are a great choice for tea towels, furnishing and similar projects.
Each of our coloured linen yarns offers a smooth, slightly glossy appearance making them perfect for crafting projects that stand out.
