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.

Lucy T. ★★★★★

The slubs give it such an earthy, handwoven look, and it pressed up beautifully for the curtains I made. It did start out crisp but softened a lot after the first wash, so keep that 6-8% shrinkage in mind when cutting.

Joshua I. ★★★★★

I washed it before sewing and it shrank right around the 7% mark, so my yardage estimate was spot on. It starts off crisp and stiff but softens up nicely after that first wash. Perfect weight for a summer tunic.

Sebastian ★★★★★

The natural slubs give this linen such an earthy, textured look, exactly what I wanted for a summer tunic. It starts out quite crisp but softens up nicely after a few washes, just be ready for that 6-8% shrinkage.
