          Comments about Fibra Natura Flax:

          I do like this yarn--the drape is nice after washing, it really gets soft. But there are knots in the skeins and I needed MUCH smaller needles than suggested (ended up using size 2 to prevent garment from being see-through). The swatch shrank by 1" after washing. All that said, it will make a lovely drapey summer tank top.

                    I am making a summer top, maybe a swimsuit cover-up with this yarn. It is working up as I expected.

                      Comments about Fibra Natura Flax:

                      This is the first time I use 100% linen. Very happy. it drapes well and is easier to knit than cotton of the same weight. It is not DK though. I would not use needles bigger than size 6 (4 mm). It knits up very lacy, even garter stitch looks great!
