- Linen is a bast fiber.
- Linen requires no irrigation and can be grown even in poor soil. It requires no chemicals.
- Linen is grown in rotation, nourishing the soil for other crops. It is also always non-GMO.
- Today, it is one of the only textile fibers still grown in Europe.
- A breathable fabric, linen is strong and absorbent. It’s more durable and dries faster than cotton. Its naturally cooling properties make it an appealing summer wear and layering option.
- Linen production is almost zero waste and leftovers like flax dust can be used for insulation. The seeds can provide oil and the by-products of linen production can be processed into a pulp.
- As linen fabric is said to get softer with age and each wash, having and caring for a linen garment for a long time is covetable.
We recommend washing on a gentle cycle using natural detergent and hang drying. Hand washing is always a good option too. Use a laundry bag to protect the fabric from getting damaged. Look for a dense fabric for the laundry bag.
As the item is hand mended, it will fray over time.
