Buy linen fabric by the metre
Linen is woven from flax fibres. It is strong, highly breathable and gets softer with every wash, with a characteristic natural texture and relaxed crumple.
It is ideal for summer dresses, shirts, trousers and jumpsuits, as well as tablecloths, napkins, tea towels, aprons, cushions, curtains and blinds.
Linen fabric FAQs
Does linen shrink?
Yes, linen can shrink noticeably, so always pre-wash before cutting.
Why does linen crease?
Flax fibres have little elasticity, so linen creases easily. Many people love this relaxed look; press while slightly damp for a crisper finish.
Is linen good for hot weather?
Very. It wicks moisture and dries quickly, which keeps it cool against the skin.
