4C22 Rustic Cobalt Softened - 100% Linen - Heavy (7.1 oz/yd2)
Dark, brooding and dramatic, the intense blue of COBALT linen was ideal for Renaissance painter Jacopo Vignali's heightened, operatic scenes.
A leading painter in the Florentine Seicento, Vignali's Baroque paintings were defined by flowing swathes of jewel-toned fabric in midnight blues and crimson reds; set amidst theatrical, directional light, these richly toned colors amplify the romantic agony and tragedy of his stories.
At a heavier weight of 7.1 ounces this 100% linen is referred to as Rustic due to its more textured look and feel. Durable and perfect for projects that require just a bit more substance.
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
Which is darker in 4C22, Cobalt or Insignia Blue?
F|S Team
The Cobalt is the darker of the 2 colors.
I finished the pants (baggy leg with a simple 3" elastic waistband). They are perfect! They could be a little more flowy but I feel they will soften more after a few washes. I love how they feel and fit!!!!
Definitely not flowy fabric. I'm planning on making a pair of baggy pants with it. Not sure how it will go. It did soften after washing so I think it will be great. I live in South Texas where the winters don't get so cold and I think pants made from this fabric would be perfect. I will post an update once I know.
The color was just what I was looking for to make a skirt. Sturdier than the middle weight which is exactly what I wanted, Washed up beautifully without the color fading at all, also, still has a soft hand.
I have not made up my mind yet because it's more of a fall and winter weight I will be on the lookout for a really nice pattern
beautiful colour , great weight. sews up beautifully. so pleased with all my purchases.
I used the cobalt to make the Paola Workwear Jacket (a free pattern offered by Fabric-store and a must try!). *I altered the pockets and reversed the button side for a men's jacket. The cobalt was very similar to the color as seen on my screen. As always, please with my linen order!
I made tea/barista towels with this beautiful cobalt linen. These are sold in a coffee shop and they could not be more pretty. The weight is terrific and the color is rich even after washing.
Cloche hat made from the heavier weight linen.
Cobalt 4C22 heavy linen Viking Rus Pants. Customer was very happy with them!
I sew mostly everyday garments. I love wearing linen year around. This jacket is made from Heavy Rustic Black 4C22. After 2 washes it starts to show the Indigo. I love it.
