Note:
Fabric is pre-washed. The first cut has a few additional cm left attached without charge, as there's some discolouration.
Defect:
Discounted for the somewhat stiff handle (see description)

Pure linen fabric which is not pre-softened, in a somewhat desaturated magenta (purplish-pink) colour.  This fabric has some body and drape, but the handle is definitely on the stiff side (not fluid, like well-softened linen can be).  It is not particularly smooth but is not scratchy, either - I find it to be comfortable against the skin.  Like most linen, this fabric should gradually soften up more with repeated washing.  The yarns are slightly thicker than average and are tightly woven.  Fabric is opaque on the skin.  Suitable for tops, shirts, pants, shorts, or bags and crafts.  Not recommended for blouses, dresses, or skirts in its current state, unless you specifically want a more stiff effect.
