What is Viscose?

Viscose is made from waste wood pulp like Beech and Birch. It is a rayon fabric, but, unlike modal, the process includes some chemicals. Here is how viscose is made:

1. The plant is chipped into a wood pulp and dissolved chemicals like sodium hydroxide, forming a brown wood pulp solution.
2. This brown wood pulp is then washed, cleaned, and bleached.
3. To create the fibers, the pulp is treated with carbon disulfide and then dissolved in sodium hydroxide to create the solution referred to as “viscose.”
4. The viscose solution is forced through a spinneret, which is a machine that creates filaments, called regenerated cellulose.
5. This regenerated cellulose is spun into yarn, which can then be woven or knit into viscose rayon fabric.

LINEN INFO
Environment:
Linen can be expensive, but it is also much better for the environment. Flax plants are very resilient, they can grow in poor soil, and require very little water. What’s more, every single part of the flax plant is then used in making all types of products, from linen clothing to varnishes.

Health:
Similar to silk, 100% linen is wonderful for people with sensitive skin and those prone to allergic reactions like "prickly heat" in hot weather. For women who suffer from "hot flushes", 100% linen is the most comfortable answer in warm environments.

Care:
Linen can't and shouldn't be ironed. The creasing is part of the natural allure. The creasing also molds the garment, and in practice the more creasing there is, the less evident it becomes as the whole garment softens.
Linen loves being washed and dries much quicker than Cotton. The more it is worn and washed the softer the fabric becomes. It also lasts much longer than cotton, as it is harder wearing and a much stronger material.
