Linen is a versatile fabric with so many uses. It's suitable for clothing, accessories and home items.

It's a more sustainable fibre, taking less water than cotton to grow, and less chemicals to process.

It naturally has a slightly uneven texture, referred to as slubs. This is normal and nt a fault in the woven fabric.

Linen fabric is breathable, cool in summer and insulating in winter.

Crease marks are more common with linen than other fabrics. This is because linen fibres are naturally strong, have low elasticity and don't bounce back after being bent or folded.

To minimise this you can iron while it's still damp, or use a high steam setting on your iron. This will re-hydrate the fibres.

Also hang your garments or fabric instead of folding, this will reduce the amount you need to iron.

The inherent nature of linen fabric means there are often tiny slubs or knots in the fabric, some might say imperfections. This is a natural texture of linen and is not considered a flaw in the fabric.

For our printed fabrics it's possible that there could be small white areas that have not been printed due to small fibres or slubs.

These are usually small and not noticeable, you should be able to work your project around any that may appear.
