Irish Linen – Oatmeal & Oyster (147–150cm Wide)
This finely woven, lightweight Irish linen is made from oxygen-bleached fibres, giving it a soft natural colour and gently textured flow. Although the fabric arrives unwashed and a little crisp, it softens beautifully with washing and wear. We recommend washing before sewing for best results.
Woven with care and tradition, this linen reflects Ireland’s longstanding reputation for high-quality flax production. A clean, breathable fabric with a subtle sheen, perfect for both garment-making and interior projects.

Sustainability
Linen is one of the most environmentally responsible fibres available. Flax grows in poor soils, requires very little water, and every part of the plant is used — from fibre to seed.
Health
Soft, breathable, and hypoallergenic, linen is excellent for those with sensitive skin or heat sensitivity. It regulates body temperature naturally and is a gentle choice for daily wear.
Care
Linen does not require ironing — its natural creasing becomes part of the garment’s character.
