Duet Cotton / Linen Weaving Yarn ~ Chambray

Duet combines the ease of weaving with cotton with the sheen and hand of linen. The subtle variegation in the linen adds a slightly marbled visual element to projects. Buttery and smooth on a multi-shaft loom, this yarn is also a wonderful introduction to linen for rigid heddle weavers who have a few projects under their belts. Duet weaves into beautiful summer scarves and shawls, as well as heirloom-quality towels and dining linens that soften and improve over time.

  • 4oz cones / 600 yds
  • Size: similar to 5/2; 2,390 yds per pound.
  • Suggested EPI: 12-18 for rigid heddle and multi-shaft looms.
  • Care: hand or machine wash in cool water, tumble dry low or air-dry.
  • Made in the USA. Learn more about our sourcing here.

Have ordered this yarn so many timez

Gist Duet yarn is absolutely my favorite weaving yarn: bread bags, soap bars and bags, kitchen linens of all kinds. I just can’t get enough Duet!

Very stiff

I used Santorini to make the skip dent scarf. The color is gorgeous. However, I would not use this yarn exclusively in a scarf. It is very stiff (which made for great slaying). I've steam ironed after finishing it as others have suggested and it is still stiff. I have another gist pattern where this yarn is used (rhythm) and I'm afraid to use it as it is so anti-drape. I would use this in placements, though. Again, vibrant color.

Beautiful yarn - a bit challenging to work with though.

I like it

The Duet cotton / linen is easy to weave with. The colors are vibrant. It is durable and the results are really nice. I like the Storm shade. It has made my projects look beautiful.
