Filpucci Bonton Organic Linen Blend Cone Yarn

Filpucci Bonton is an ultra-fine industrial linen blend yarn developed for lightweight textile structures, delicate layering, and refined surface texture. Spun at an exceptionally fine 1/22Nm count, this yarn offers the dry elegance and breathable character of organic linen, softened slightly by polyamide and elastane for improved flexibility and handling.

The texture feels crisp, airy, and lightly elastic rather than rigid. Its subtle irregularity and dry touch create a natural textile atmosphere especially suited to weaving, fine-gauge machine knitting, and transparent layered fabrics.

Because of its extremely fine structure, Bonton is generally recommended as a companion yarn for hand knitting, held together with wool, silk, cotton, or other fibers to introduce linen texture without excessive stiffness. In weaving and machine knitting, however, it performs beautifully on its own, creating lightweight fabrics with quiet structure and refined movement.

As an industrial surplus yarn, this cone reflects the understated sophistication often found in Italian mill production — practical, textural, and deeply versatile.

• Sold as is, without retail packaging

• All yarns are 100% functional with no visible flaws or defects affecting usability

• Please note that cone yarn is wound in an industrial format

• In rare cases, internal breaks may not be visible from the outside of the cone

• Please allow approximately 2%–3% knitting loss, which is standard for cone yarn handling.

• In case of yarn breaks, pull away about 10 cm of yarn before rejoining and secure with a small cross-knot to reduce tension and avoid distortion in the knitted fabric.
