Say, “knitting,” and most of us think, “wool.” But those of us who love the feel of

needles and yarn in our hands the year ‘round, rejoice in plant fibers. Quince & Co Sparrow, our lovely little linen bird, is spun in Italy from organic linen grown in Belgium. It’s cool, soft, has a slight sheen, and softens and drapes with every washing, just as woven linens do.

Sparrow knits up on size US 2 to size US 6 needles, depending on the fabric and look you’re after. It makes lovely, flowing camisoles and clean tee-type pullovers, pretty little cardis, and stunning shawls and scarves.

Here are a few patterns to get you started, a few that, we think, make good use of this pretty yarn. Find more ideas on our website: quinceandco.com.
