Worsted

WHISPER is perfect for summer projects that breathe, flow, and make an impression without ever shouting for attention. This 4-ply linen yarn locks soft cotton fibers into its core during the plying process, blending the strength of linen with the gentle touch of cotton. It glides whisper-light across your needles or hook, turning each stitch into a soft-spoken statement.

Weight group is derived from measured gauge, not the brand's label — that is why a yarn labelled "aran / worsted" can sit in our Aran group while another brand's "worsted" lands in DK. Library: 1406 yarns · 42 brands · 135 without gauge · 276/1408 gauge rows missing row count.
