Mojave is Kelbourne's answer to warm-weather knitting: a 60% pima cotton, 40% linen blend, plied fine and smooth for great stitch definition without any of the stiffness plant fibers can bring. It's got a crisp, cool hand that softens up nicely once it's blocked, which makes it a strong pick for tees, tanks, and anything meant to be worn against skin in July instead of January. Machine washable, too — rare for a yarn this nice, and worth pointing out to anyone hesitant about all the hand-washing that usually comes with natural fibers.
