Unwashed fabric. Shrinkage approximately 6-8%.

A classic versatile linen fabric in with naturally occurring slubs. This plain-woven linen fabric has an earthy and natural feel, starts crisp, and gets softer with every washing over time. Great thick linen fabric for homeware projects such as aprons, tea towels, cushions, and soft furnishings or clothing like jackets, pants, tunics, and skirts.

We recommend ordering a linen swatch before purchasing, as each piece is cut to order and therefore non-returnable unless faulty.

Composition: 100% linen
Weight: 215 g/sq.m
Width unwashed: approximately 150 cm
Width washed: approximately 140cm

Soak first and wash separately at 60 degrees to shrink the fabric. Then wash separately at 40 degrees.

Samuel W. ★★★★★

Started out stiff like cardboard but after one wash it softened up beautifully and settled into that 6-8% shrinkage. I used it for kitchen curtains and the crisp texture looks way more expensive than what I paid.

George ★★★★★

The natural slubs give it such an earthy texture, way nicer than the flat linen I've used before. I made a summer dress and it softened up beautifully after the first wash, though it did shrink right around the 7% mark like the listing said. Already ordered more for a duvet cover.

Mia ★★★★★

I pre-washed it before sewing curtains and it shrank the expected 6-8%, so no surprises there. The fabric starts off crisp but softens up nicely after a couple of washes, and the natural slubs give it a lovely rustic look.
