If you are working on any fine linen project, then wet-spun linen yarn for weaving is definitely the best pick for you. If you're looking for something that is tougher and used in projects such as weaving, textiles, or basketry, then our raw organic linen yarn would be an excellent choice. All our yarns are suitable for both the warp and weft. Our cotton linen yarn blends work perfectly when crafting tea towels, furnishings, and other related products.

Each of our coloured linen yarns has a smooth, slightly glossy finish, making them perfect for creating pieces that really stand out.

Linen Yarns FAQs

Which linen yarn is best for my project?

For fine, refined weaving, choose our wet-spun linen yarn, which has a smooth, glossy finish. For rustic, robust textiles, our raw organic linen yarn—unbleached and undyed—is excellent. Both options stem from the quality of flax and the specific spinning process used. All our linen yarns are versatile enough for use in both warp and weft.

Can I use Thread Collective's linen yarns for everyday items like tea towels and furnishings?

Certainly, you may! Our cotton linen yarn blends are crafted in such a way that useful items requiring beauty and functionality—such as tea towels and home furnishings—are the perfect match. They're tough enough for daily use but still look great.

How can I be sure of the quality of the linen yarns?

Here at Thread Collective, we stand by our quality. From the yarn to the tools, each of our products goes through a stringent curation process to ensure that it passes our high standards. Please browse our collection online to check quality. We are certain that you will be satisfied with the premium quality of our linen yarn in Australia.

What Does Nel Indicate in Yarn Measurement?

Nel, or the English Lea system, is a measure of yarn fineness that specifically indicates the length of yarn in relation to its weight. A higher Nel number means a finer yarn. This measurement helps crafters understand the thickness of the yarn and anticipate how it will perform in various textile projects.

Is Cottolin Considered a Linen Yarn?

Cottolin is a blended yarn that combines the natural qualities of both cotton and linen. It is not pure linen yarn but inherits properties from both fibres, making it a popular choice for projects that require the durability of linen with the softness of cotton. It's particularly favoured for items like dish towels and lightweight apparel.

What Are the Differences Between Wet-Spun, Dry-Spun, Tow, and Line Linen?

Wet-Spun Linen: Produced by spinning fibres that are soaked in water, resulting in smooth, fine, and lustrous yarns ideal for delicate and detailed weaving projects.

Dry-Spun Linen: Made from dry flax fibres, this type of yarn is generally coarser than wet-spun linen and is suitable for more robust textile products.

Tow Linen: Created from shorter flax fibres, tow linen is rougher and generally used for more utilitarian purposes such as making twine or coarse fabrics.

Line Linen: Made from long flax fibres, line linen is high-quality and smooth, perfect for fine linens and high-end fabrics due to its strength and lustre.
