Check Jacquard Linen Ray

€39,50/metre
Description

This linen is produced in small batches in Eastern Europe where there is a strong heritage of spinning and weaving linen fabric.

An unusual jacquard linen in a colourful geometric design of red, pinks and pale yellow. Designed in house these linens were inspired by the shapes and colours of mid century design. It would make great dresses and shirts but would also work well around the home as cushion covers, quilt toppers etc. We recommend using a smaller stitch length for this linen because of the weave being more open weave. 

Jacquard linen is not for the faint hearted. It is a beautiful unique cloth but requires careful handling. It is a double gauze so will want to fray,  wobble and the pattern matching will add another complexity, so we suggest this cloth is for the very experienced maker.

  • 100% linen.
  • 152cm wide.
  • 6.4oz, 217gsm.
  • Pattern repeat: 6cm.
  • Wash at 30 degrees with a non bio detergent. Do not tumble. Shake out and dry flat. Linen will always seize up after washing but as soon as you start to use/wear it the fibres relax again.
  • If you are using this linen for curtains we recommend using a lining to prevent fading.
  • Never dry linen in direct sunlight as the colour can bleach and fade.
  • Made using AZO-free dyes.
  • OKEO-TEX certified.
  • As all computer monitors show colours differently, we recommend ordering a sample of the cloth to check it is the right colour and weight for your project. 
  • Thread match Gutermann Sew All 578.
More about this cloth

Linen is naturally stain resistant, does not pile, and is moth repellent. It is easy to wash as it can sustain high temperatures, is has very little if no shrinkage and is very strong.

It is anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, hypo allergenic and thermoregulating, it will also absorb up 20% moisture before feeling damp.

As the linen fibres have low elasticity (which causes it to crease) it will wear in any areas that are repeatedly folded in the same place for a long time, however it does have much better abrasion resistance than say cotton.
Washing Instructions
  • Wash at 30 degrees with a non bio detergent. Do not tumble. Shake out and dry flat. Linen will always seize up after washing but as soon as you start to use/wear it the fibres relax again.
  • Never dry linen in direct sunlight as the colour can bleach and fade.
Eco Credentials

Flax is a strong plant best grown in northern Europe. It needs little or no fertilisers and due to the local climate, little extra water. It doesn’t really require many pesticides either as it can grow in poor quality soil. The Advisory Commission Report to the European Parliament stated that flax cultivation has positive effects on eco-system diversity as it allows for an “environmental pause”. One hectare of flax can retain 3.7 tonnes of CO2. Every part of the plant is used, what isn’t used to produce linen can be used to make linseed oil, paper, cattle feed or even soap.

Linen is therefore almost naturally organic. It is completely biodegradable, recyclable and due to its natural absorbency, it requires less dye than cotton. Linen therefore scores high on the ecological chart.
