LØVETAND | 100% Organic Linen
CaMaRose LØVETAND is a linen yarn, made of 100% organic linen fibers. The yarn consists of a thin thread, knitted to a fine tube. The tube makes the linen fiber appear softer, than if it were just a single thread.

Linen consists of the stem of the flax flower, which makes the yarn robust and durable. Therefore, linen can also feel a bit stiff, when knitted or crocheted, but linen becomes softer in use.
The colour palette of LØVETAND consist of dusty, classic, and finely harmonized colours, which makes it possible to combine the colours with each other.
The flax fiber used in LØVETAND comes from Belgium, and the yarn itself is produced in Italy specially CaMaRose specifically. The yarn is dyed according to REACH REGULATIONS.
IMPORTANT NOTE: It is recommended to wash the finished work gently on 30oC, using a detergent suitable for linen. You may NOT use regular detergents to wash LØVETAND, as this contains bleaches and solvents, that will ruin the fibers of the linen.
