Didn't Know Linen Could Look Like That, Did You?

Tow flax yarn

I tried carding the junk I took from the tow flax top to get a thick single. It didn't look much better in the yarn than it did in the plastic bag. I was trying to get a lumpy, fuzzy linen yarn but this was a little too much. It looks like some kind of accident at the burlap factory. The short fibers need a lot of twist to hold together, so this yarn is very harsh.
