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.
