Description

Warm up your sewing plans with yellow ochre. This Traditional Linen is yarn-dyed and woven from 100% linen, with a washed finish and a breathable, durable 160gsm weight.

A simple shirt or skirt lets the colour take centre stage, while relaxed dresses and trousers offer more dressmaking possibilities. For home projects, try a tablecloth, bedding or colourful soft furnishings.

This fabric meets OEKOTex® Standard 100.

Care & washing

Allow 2-10% shrinkage to be on the safe side. Wash the fabric before making up, in the same way you'll wash the finished make, drying methods included, so it settles once rather than after it's sewn.

Test a sample area first to find the most suitable way to wash it. We can't accept liability for fabrics washed or treated incorrectly.

The linen is lovely, but I am not happy with the colour description, to my mind this is bright yellow, not ochre.
