IS010 OPTIC WHITE Softened - 54% Linen / 46% Cotton - Middle (6.2 oz/yd2)
Fluffy, dimensional, and simply a joy to live with - you’ll feel like a
sewing maestro when you pull this cloth out of its first dry cycle.
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).

I bought 1 yard as a test and then ended up buying a bolt. Made towels for myself and my parents, very happy with the outcome. Pros: * Towels are soft and absorbent. * Amazing as hair towels, light weight and hair comes out nicely dry. Cons: * The chemical smell before washing. It hits you when you open the package and doesn't go away while you work on it. I'm a fabric pre-washer, but strongly recommend to cut and sew before washing, or plan to bind instead of hem. * The color is not actual optic white. It is creamy. Other thoughts: * The fabric shrinkage was less than I expected. Below is my experience. * Cut on the pattern and use it to measure the hems. Each little block is about 1/4". The fabric is not square on the bolt, so cut carefully or expect to trim later. Sample 1 yard, no hem, straight into wash (LxW) Start = 36 x 83 After first wash, gentle and cold, med hot dry = 27 x 72 After second wash, normal and warm, med hot dry = 23 x 70 (ended up making hair towels out of this, corners had to be tacked by hand because they were so thick) Towels from bolt, with 3/4" hem (LxW) Washed on hot, med hot dry, 2 times before measuring. 45 x 66 => 28 x 52 54 x 83 => 40 x 70 20 x 16 => 12 x 12 50 x 23 => 28 x 16
I love this fabric! I've made four sets of towels for friends and family. I used the pattern provided but for a cleaner look, I changed out the corners for mitered ones.
