Antigone from De Rerum Natura is a luxurious linen yarn crafted with precision and care. Composed of ten strands of meticulously twisted combed linen, Antigone has a smooth, silky texture and a delightfully fresh feel that screams luxury.
This versatile yarn offers endless possibilities – knit with fine needles for a refined finish or opt for a looser fit to showcase its natural drape, allowing you to explore a wide range of patterns. Perfect for creating mid-season jumpers, lightweight tops for warmer days, and delicate lace cardigans.
De Rerum Natura always produces yarns with sustainability and quality in mind. The linen is sourced from Normandy by the Terre de Lin cooperative; this yarn embodies a commitment to ancient cultivation practices that preserve the soil and yield high-quality fibres without the use of chemical inputs. Each strand is carefully wet-spun in Lithuania to ensure a uniform, soft, and naturally lustrous finish before being expertly twisted and dyed in France's Creuse region.
