3.5 OUNCE
Light as a feather. Also known as"handkerchief" linen.
Delicate in appearance but just as sturdy as heavier weight, rustic linens.
Suitable for fashion and home accessories and moisture wicking products like our popular "Greensavers".
5.3 OUNCE
Medium weight, may be considered "all purpose" linen. It is neither sheer nor heavy. It is suitable for table linens, powder room towels, shower curtains, pillow covers.
7.1 OUNCE
Heavy weight, also known as "rustic" linen. Soft but sturdy. Retains absorbent quality with repeated use. (Some would insist that absorbency improves with use!). A great choice for tea towels and chef aprons.

STRIPE DESIGNS
are limited to medium and heavy weight linens.
Linen can have a mind of its own. If you prefer linen without rumples and creases, launder in warm or cold water with mild detergent then dry on low heat and lay flat before completely dry. To fluff, return to dryer briefly. To retain maximum absorbency, do not use fabric softener. Pressing linen with an iron will return it to a crisp finish.

All products have been laundered to minimize further shrinkage.
