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.

Nicholas ★★★★★

The fabric has a lovely crisp hand right out of the package, and I appreciate the natural slubs that make it feel truly artisanal. After a cold wash and dry it softened up nicely, though I did account for the 6-8% shrinkage when cutting my pattern. Perfect weight for a summer shirt.

Robert ★★★★★

Those natural slubs give it such an earthy, textured look that I ended up leaving it unwashed to keep that crisp feel. It's surprisingly hefty at 215 gsm, so it hangs nicely for the curtains I'm making. Just remember it'll shrink 6-8% once you finally wash it.

Avery ★★★★★

I pre-washed this before sewing and it shrank right around the 7% mark, so the 6-8% estimate was spot on. The slubs give it a really natural, earthy texture that plain linen just doesn't have. It started out crisp but softened up beautifully after the first wash.
