This linen cotton blend is very similar in appearance to pure linen and has nearly identical qualities. The fabric is a bit duller, with slight slubs, and is softer and lighter. Our linen cotton blends are suitable for garments and home decor. Please double check the weight when ordering; we have light and heavy versions for everything from blouses to trousers, jackets, and curtains.
The fabric breathes and is pleasant to the touch. Its broken twill weave (herringbone) is slightly sturdier and stiffer than plain weave linen cotton blend. We recommend washing or steaming to shrink before use. To prevent fading, do not dry colored fabric in direct sunlight.
Wash dyed linen cotton blends at 40°C; whites and natural colors can be washed at 60°C. Iron on the cotton setting; may also be steamed. If machine drying, use a short, gentle cycle.
Generally, pre-shrinking is needed for linen, cotton, and rayon, but for finer fabrics (light rayon, Tencel and modal) proceed with care – don't use hot water or a hot iron, simply launder the fabric the way you will be laundering the completed garment.
Most of our fabrics are one-time offers that last until they are sold out. However, some more popular items are always restocked or can be ordered on request. As a rule, this applies to notions, where the selection is pretty consistent, but may also include some types of fabric. Look at the product's availability value – it shows whether the goods are available while supplies last, in the core inventory or in a seasonal collection .
The fabrics in our core inventory, seasonal collections and limited editions are from repeated production cycles that we have quality-tested – given proper care their colors should not bleed. Fabrics that are on offer while supplies last are one-off products that have not been individually tested. For flax and wool, we recommend a sample test.
Yes. Like other natural materials linen can fade in the sun. Avoid hanging dyed linen to dry in the sun and do not hang dyed linen garments in places at home where there is direct sunlight either. For curtains and drapes, take into account that the color will fade over time or back them with a blackout fabric.
Yes. We ship worldwide. The price of shipping is automatically calculated at checkout before payment after you select the country of delivery and the preferred carrier.
