Stone-washed European flax, textured and matte.
Crisp one-over-one cotton, cool and neat.
Smooth cotton with a soft, subtle sheen.
Machine wash at 40 degrees with a gentle liquid detergent. Skip fabric softener and bleach.
Line dry, or tumble dry low and take it out while it is still slightly damp.
Linen needs no ironing. Iron cotton percale and sateen while they are still damp.
Store clean, dry pieces in a breathable cotton bag, never in plastic.
Fresh air and a light breeze do more for linen than any machine. Line drying keeps the fibres relaxed, uses less energy and leaves that clean, sun-warmed smell. Shake each piece out before you hang it and smooth the seams with your hands.
