100% Linen ‘Checkmate’ – Crossroads Black and White Check

  • 135cm wide
  • French Flax Linen.

'Crossroads' is a beautiful, enzyme (or Bio Wash) check linen, which means it has that lovely washed look and feel.  The design is an elevated check; something a bit different from a gingham.  Checks are always 'in', and sooo wearable all through the year - for tops, shirts, dresses, skirts, shorts and pants.  They look fab on their own, or with solids.  Explore Pinterest for ideas of how you might use contracting prints for collars, collar bands, plackets and cuffs. This fabric behaves beautifully in a voluminous sleeve.  Be sure to look at our expanding button range to finish off your shirt or shirtdress.  

For your cloth edit consider:  semi-fitted or looser shirts, blouses, tops and tunics; dresses (eg. wrap, fit and flare, tunic, shirt dresses); skirts (eg. wrap, midi, gathered, pleated).  It would be great in pants or shorts in summer also.

    Cloth Care
    We recommend a gentle machine wash or hand washing linen. It is important not to wring the fabric or garment, so if you are handwashing, roll up in a towel to press out excess water. To ensure the long life of a garment, don’t tumble dry as this breaks down the fibres. If you do tumble dry the cloth, then do so on a cooler setting. It is preferable to wash inside out. Wash colours separately. Shake out the wet garment and dry flat (or on a hanger) in the shade. Use a warm/hot iron and spot test. You may need a water spray bottle to get rid of the wrinkles when you are ironing, or just embrace the beautiful crumpled look of the cloth ;-). Linen softens upon wearing and laundering.
