Linen
cloth was woven of flax fiber in many grades and weaves. Used in every
aspect of living from clothing, to household needs to furnishings to the shroud
made for the corpse, linen was so common that a tax was proposed as a source of
easy revenue on the coarser sorts being imported into the US towards the end of
the 18th century. This linen is actually medium/lightweight as the
weave is slightly open. It is well suited for summer gowns,shortgowns,
under-petticoats, coarser shirts & shifts, linings, aprons, children's
summer gowns and coarse sheeting. Has a finished
selvage. |
