Sample Fabric: Cabernet Linen

$18

The go-to warm-weather fabric since antiquity.

Woven from flax grown in Belgium & France, produced in Ireland, our weighted linen in Cabernet is soft against the skin, naturally moisture-wicking, textured to the touch, and oh-so-breathable. Featuring an easy, go-with the flow drape, and slubbed, relaxed weave, it's a fantastic choice for warm weather garments. Oh and about those wrinkles...100% natural linen like ours is known to wrinkle. We love that! It's part of the linen aesthetic, so pristine smoothness is not required if you aren't into that. Remember, "wrinkle-free" linen is code for "chemically treated" linen. That said, if you prefer a smoother look, you can take a warm (read: not hot!) iron to it, or some steam.

Note this fabric is sold by the yard and is 59" wide.

How I'm made

Linen is made from flax, a plant that looks like grass and grows like a magic beanstalk. The first step is to pull the flax, rather than cut it, to get the longest fibers possible. Next, the harvested plant must be "stooked", i.e. tied together and stacked in bundles called "beats". Once dry, the seeds are removed from the flax in a combing-like process called "scutching". Only then, when the plant stock has been separated from the fibers , can yarn be spun.
