Mrs. Lewes Linen | Merchant & Mills

European laundered linen, tumbled at the mill for softness. This linen is yarn dyed, meaning the yarns are dyed before being woven. This linen is produced in small batches in Eastern Europe where there is a strong heritage of spinning and weaving linen fabric. Black and natural gingham. Suitable for dresses, tops, loose trousers, and slouchy jackets. Would make a fine Ellis dress. Suitable for the Throw, Pillow and Bolster cushion patterns in our Sewing Book as pictured in gallery. We have more colour ways in this check, to see these click on the ‘Alternatives’ tab. 145cm wide. 4.5oz, 155gsm. 100% linen. Pattern repeat 2.5cm. Square size 1.25cm. 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
