yarn information

Linen, derived from the fibres of the flax plant, is known for its exceptional strength and durability, up to 3x more durable than cotton. It’s highly absorbent and dries faster than cotton, making it a preferred fabric in warm climates due to its breathability. Linen’s ability to wick moisture away from the body contributes to its comfort in humid conditions. Notably, linen is hypoallergenic, which is beneficial for people with allergies or chemical sensitivities. Despite its many advantages, linen can wrinkle easily. However, its luxurious texture and the fact that it becomes softer with each wash make it a popular choice for crocheting or knitting both garments and and home decor as well as weaving.

Linen should be washed in cool or lukewarm water, either by hand or in a machine on a gentle cycle, using a mild detergent. Avoid hot water as it can shrink and weaken the fibers. After washing, linen should be air-dried and ironed while still slightly damp for the best results.

Please Note: Our Linen is dyed in increments of five kilograms at a time to ensure color consistency. The unique nature of the hand dyeing process using plant based dyes can result in variations in color between batches.
