Alice - De Rerum Natura

Alice is a blend of 75% organic Mérinos d'Arles from sheep raised in Provence and 25% linen grown in northern France and Belgium and specially selected for this yarn for its great fineness and softness. The natural spring of the Arles merino gives the yarn great elasticity, while the linen gives it a luminous aspect and a pleasant touch against the skin.

These two very different materials are intimately blended and then comb-spun to increase the strength and softness of the fibres. The three plies of this yarn are then twisted with a tension calculated to create a balanced, round yarn while retaining its suppleness.
