Volute

La Bien Aimée (LBA) yarns are absolute heaven to knit and to wear. Each skein is a jewel. The nuance in colors have to be seen with your own eyes to be believed. LBA was founded by Aimée Gille. All yarns are handdyed in Paris, France. It is such a treat to offer these yarns to you! 

La Bien Aimée Volute is a beautiful new yarn base that allies the delicate softness of cashmere to the strength / sturdiness of a core in merino wool. A fluffy yarn, the cashmere is spun around a solid thread of merino wool. So you get the best of both worlds! A strong durable yarn with the softness / lightness of cashmere.

Volute is named after delicate tendrils of smoke going up lazily into the air. A light fingering weight, it is light and soft as can be. The perfect yarn for accessories, Volute offers 250m for a 50g skein.

About the Shawl Pictured: LE BANDANA
Shawn took one skein of Volute in our custom La Bien Aimée colorway Day by the Bay, and within two days, had completed a sweet version of Le Bandana by Aimée Gille! In order to use up the skein exactly, Shawn weighed the ball of Volute before beginning, and switched to the decrease section once half the yarn had been used. This is the perfect way to use every inch of this precious yarn!
