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. Such a treat to offer these yarns to you!
Helix and Felix, a light and lofty yarn base, are light fingering weight and exclusively spun for La Bien Aimée.

Both yarns are 75% Falkland Merino.
The main difference between the two yarns:
Helix is contains 25% grey Gotland wool. This light-grey fiber mixed with the bright white merino gives the Helix yarn an incredible depth of color.
Whereas Felix has 25% white Corriedale allowing the colors to shine brighter and clearer.
Both Gotland and Corriedale are known for their wonderful luster and halo, reminiscent of mohair.
