  • Fabric by the yard is cut to order and, as such, a 20% restocking fee will be applied to returns of fabric by the yard. The quantity of yards selected will be cut as one continuous piece of fabric whenever possible, however this is *not* guaranteed.

100% Linen. Lightweight, airy, and subtly sheer. This material feels like wearing a whisper. It has a cool, smooth hand-feel and catches the light most deliciously.

Our Lightweight Linen has enough weight to not feel too delicate for everyday wear, but is substantially lighter and floatier than our Midweight Linen. Excellent for sticky summer days, but also great for layering year-round.

Natural strength and durability are hallmarks of linen, and it's a super friendly fiber on the environment. It requires very little processing, and is hypoallergenic, comfortable in all seasons, insulating, and absorbent.

Suitable for tops, dresses, some bottoms (skirts or pajama/loungewear) and home decor projects.

Linen is a natural fiber made from cellulose fiber inside the stalks of the flax plant. It is a complete product of nature, and can vary drastically in color and texture based on the growing conditions of the season. Variations in base color and texture can be found even after processing and dyeing. Color will vary from dye lot to dye lot—if you need consistent color for several projects, order the yardage all at once so that we can give you one continuous cut from the same bolt.

Natural imperfections in weave are also to be expected and embraced—slubs, nubs, and occasional bits of organic matter are common in linen. If you are looking for the homogeny and perfection of a synthetic fiber or a finely woven cotton you will not find it in linen.

Material Details

Fabric: Lightweight Linen
Fiber Content: 100% Linen
Weight: 3.8 oz/square yard | 130GSM
Width: 55-57"
Country of Origin: Lithuania
Care: Machine washable. Wash on gentle cycle with cold water. Tumble dry warm. Leave unpressed for a beautifully rumpled look, or press on medium heat with steam to remove wrinkles. To add some wrinkle-resistance to your material, dry iron on the highest heat before washing for the first time. Wash and dry on high heat afterward. Expect a fair amount of the lint on the first wash and dry, afterwards lint should be very minimal. For best results, prewash and press fabric before beginning a project. Our Lightweight Linen shrinks up to 2% in width and up to 6% in length on average (on the first wash).
