About this yarn
Quince & Co. Sparrow is a new take on a simple linen yarn, Belgium-grown organic linen spun in a ribbon structure. Kestrel knits up quickly at 3½ to 4 stitches to the inch. Its flat surface adds a slight texture to simple knit and purl stitches, with incredible drape. Like all things linen, woven or knitted, Kestrel only gets better as you wash and wear it.
Sparrow is a plain little yarn, beautiful in its simplicity. Its clean, smooth hand is crisp as you knit it. But after washing and wearing it becomes handkerchief soft. Spun in Italy from organic linen grown in Belgium.
