IL041 Open Weave Tangerine Softened - 100% Linen Fabric - Medium (5.01 oz/yd2) - 0.50 Yard, Width 57"
At 5.1 ounces this Open Weave 57 inch wide linen has a unique slightly sheer look and feel that sets it apart from other medium weight linens. Open weave does not make it less durable or versatile, just loosely woven.
This linen should be laundered in a cold wash-tumble dried on air setting or very low heat--line dry if possible.
The cloth is Softened so we have added a softener to give it a silkier hand. The fabric has not been laundered so shrinkage will still have to be taken into consideration (shrinkage depends on fabric weave and laundering method).

Customer Questions and Answers
I have never liked linen because of the severe wrinkling. I also found it so difficult to sew. When I received this fabric I noticed that it was a very open weave almost like burlap. I fused Pellon 135 tricot to the fabric and then sewed a gorgeous pair of pull on slacks. The fabric sewed beautifully and there is some wrinkling but nothing like expensive linen pants I have bought in the past. I ended up loving the rustic texture and the comfort of this fabric. I definitely will buy more.
Tangerine is the Pantone 2012 Color of the Year so I knew I had to make something in that color. It is also one of my favorites. I live in the Antelope Valley in SoCal and we get the CA poppy blooming every year and this color reminds me of those flowers. The blog post regarding this fabric showed a lovely scarf with just a hint of fringe. It was done in the very soft and delicate Fog color, but let me tell you, it also works in Tangerine! I love my scarf. I wrap it around my neck and I feel fabulous AND warm. Such a treat.
