The Linen Process

From Field to Fabric

Linen is one of the world’s oldest and strongest natural fibres. Its quality depends not on speed, but on process.

Each stage below plays a role in creating linen that is breathable, durable, and refined enough for everyday wear.

Harvesting 

Flax is harvested at peak maturity to ensure fibre strength and consistency.

Retting

A controlled natural process separates the fibres from the stalk, preserving length and integrity.

Drying & Breaking

The fibres are dried and gently broken down to remove woody material.

Scutching & Hackling

The flax is cleaned and combed, aligning fibres into smooth, spinnable strands.

Spinning

The refined fibres are spun into yarn, balancing softness with durability.

Weaving

Yarns are woven into fabric using traditional looms and time-tested weaves.

Finishing

The fabric is softened, washed, and refined for comfort and longevity.

Quality Control

Each length is inspected and corrected before it is approved for use.

This slower process is intentional. It is what gives linen its longevity — and why it improves with wear.
