Linen yarn for Renaissance faire period knit stockings

Hello. I want to try my hand at making my own Medieval style womens stockings for the Renaissance faires we attend.

I want to use linen yarn because we will be going during the warmer summer and autumn months, so I definitely need a material that is light and breathable and I'm trying to be as historically accurate as possible with all the pieces I wear to the events.

Has anyone had any experience making these? Could recommend a good sturdy linen brand? Could recommend a pattern?

Anything would be appreciated.
