Discover WHISPER, the yarn that brings effortless elegance to warm-weather knitting. Part of the contemporary WOOLADDICTS collection, this worsted blend flows with breathable lightness and understated style, perfect for summer garments and accessories.
Spun from 76% linen and 24% cotton, the fibres are locked together during the plying process, combining the strength of linen with the gentle touch of cotton. The result is a fabric that drapes beautifully, feels cool against the skin, and glides whisper-light across your needles or hook — each stitch a soft-spoken statement.
With its natural fibre blend, WHISPER is ideal for breathable tops, flowing wraps, and easy summer layers. Simply wash with a gentle detergent for fine fabrics — without softener — to keep its airy structure and natural sheen.
