Planning a summer project? Principe Real is a great choice. It's a gorgeous worsted / 10ply weight yarn in a luxurious combination of 50% linen, 36% cotton and 14% natural silk with a chainette construction. Due to different uptake rates of the dye by the three types of fibres, each skein contains a blend of tonal colours giving it an appearance of a hand dyed tonal yarn.
It's a fantastic substitute for patterns that use Quince & Co Kestrel, and we've used it in crocheted tops, knitted cardigans, shawls and more. See projects on Ravelry made with Principe Real.

Named for the district Principe Real in Lisbon Portugal which in turn owes its name to D. Pedro V, the "esperancoso" (promising), son of D. Maria II. The district is known for its palaces, romantic gardens and quiet squares. Here the ambience is eclectic, chic and contemporary, making the area a favourite to stroll through in Lisbon.
