Linen /ˈlɪnən/
Garments made of linen are valued for their exceptional coolness and freshness in hot and humid weather.
Why we use a Rayon Linen Blend
Rayon blended with linen creates a substantially softer fabric with more fluid drape and a subtle sheen from the rayon.
Linen is a sustainable fabric made from flax fibers. The flax plant has been cultivated in just about every country in the world and has been used to make fiber for over 6,000 years. To extract the fibers, the plants are either cut or pulled by hand from the ground (it's said that pulling creates finer linen). The seeds are then removed through a process called winnowing or ripping, followed by retting which removes the plant stock from the fibers. Once the fibers are separated to collect the longest pieces, which can be up to 20 cm long, they are then spun into yarn and eventually woven into fabric.
