Summer Fibres

Tykk Line is the perfect blend of fibres for all your warmer weather needs. This blend of cotton linen and viscose is breathable which means it doesn’t retain heat in the same way wool does, and it’s surprisingly soft. This yarn would be lovely for summer tops and cardigans.

It would also be a wonderful option for crochet accessories like hats and bags as it’s a durable yarn that holds it’s shape. It comes in a range of bold and bright blues greens and oranges as well as some pastel and neutral shades too.

Sandnes Garn was first founded in 1888 in the industrial city of Sandnes and has since become an icon of the Norwegian knitwear industry. They are one of the oldest spinning mills in Norway.

Today, Sandnes Garn holds the position as the largest producer of hand knitting yarn in Europe, one of the world’s most up-to date spinning mills – in one of the oldest factories still running.
