Description

A classic DK weight yarn, Luma is inspired by the mood and light found in sun-bathed savannas. The plant-based fibres of organic cotton and linen are mixed with silk and fine Merino wool to provide warmth when it is cool, yet be light enough for warmer climates, a perfect yarn to create layering pieces of a handmade wardrobe.

“Full of light and life, Luma is a glowing blend of wool, cotton, linen and silk, which provides warmth yet is light enough for summery days. It knits up into a fabric with excellent drape and well defined stitches. The expanded colour range includes this vibrant jewel-like shade, and there are plenty of elegant neutrals and softer hues to fall in love with.” – The Knitter, Issue 189

I’m in the middle of a Sabai top and I love the way the light texture and softness. I can hardly wait to see the finished product after it blooms.

This yarn has a really nice drape and is a pleasure to work with. It’s perfect for the transition sweaters in spring and fall.
Another wonderful yarn from the Fibre Company.

I knit a sweater from Luna (color Vinca) and loved working with it as well as the finished product. I also really appreciate the help of The Fibre Company in helping me with my selection over the phone and in person. Thank you!

This yarn is a delight to work with and the color is lovely.

This yarn was nice to work with, but it grew much more in blocking than I expected given the 50% wool content. I made a top and had to rip out 2” of length after blocking. The round yoke neckline also grew quite a bit, and I had to run a gathering thread to take it up.

I like the feel of the yarn. My swatch was really soft. I imagine my Astro Pop Tee will be very soft when finished and blocked.

It is lovely to work with. I have actually just started my project so not sure how it will turn out.
