Merchant & Mills 260 Toast Linen (per 1/2M)

European laundered linen, tumbled at the mill for softness and a super soft handle. A natural linen shade. Toast is ideal if you are looking for a natural mid-weight washed linen.

This slubby linen is made from special tow yarn which gives the cloth its nice raw textured appearance. It is the irregular character of the fibre that lends a lovely natural charm to this pure linen. It is produced in small batches in Eastern Europe where there is a strong heritage of spinning and weaving linen fabric.

Toast can be used in the home for loose covers, curtains, cushions, and light upholstery. It is also a great weight for trousers or light weight slouchy jackets.

This would work well for the Strides and Haremere coat and in our Workbook, or a sleeveless Trapeze dress.

Connor & Elwen are wearing the free the Bucket Hat pattern. Elwen is wearing the September coat.
