I pre-washed it expecting the 6-8% shrinkage and it came out exactly right, not a surprise at all. The 215 g weight feels substantial without being stiff, and it softened up beautifully after that first wash. Already ordered more for curtains.

The natural slubs give it such an earthy, handwoven look — I made curtains and they softened beautifully after the first wash. Just be aware it shrank about 7%, so order extra yardage if you're planning a big project.

Started a bit stiff and papery like raw linen usually does, but after one wash it softened up nicely and the 6-8% shrinkage was pretty much spot on. I made kitchen curtains and the natural slubs give them a lovely rustic texture.
