LINEN AND KNITWEAR

Natural, healthy fresh, protective, soft: today linen is one of the protagonists of fashion, a fibre steeped in tradition yet ideal for modern living.
Even in the knitwear industry, linen is the protagonist thanks to the technological improvements, the top quality of the yarns and the consolidated collaboration between the all professionals involved in every phase of the production chain.
The privileged position of linen in knitwear products is guaranteed by characteristics that no other fibre has ever equalled. Natural brilliance, excellent resistance to stretching, freshness due to the absorption power and the ductile irregularity of the yarn. And the elasticity that characterizes linen knitwear confers qualities of adaptation and comfort to the garment.
Linen can be blended with every imaginable natural, synthetic or artificial fibre; it is ideal for the creation of new products with touch, appearance and performance that are constantly renewed.

The knitting collection
The Linificio knitting collection, every year presented at Pitti Filati, highlights the yarn’s unusual and original aspects and exalts the value of the linen fibre through the purity of white, the natural raw and the warm tones of the dyes.
The knitting collection offers a complete range of yarns. Single, twisted, interlaced, ribbon worked, in pure linen and hemp, but also mixed with other fibres, such as silk or polyamide, available in white, natural, dyed or melange. From the coarsest to the finest count, the articles presented for the flat knitting collection are diversified and highly attractive.
