Electro Blues Linen

Electro Blues is a dreamy oversized check of blues and warm autumnal tones. Each square is 4" wide so this is a wonderfully large scale gingham which can be hard to find! 

European laundered linen, tumbled at the mill for softness. This linen is yarn dyed, meaning the yarns are dyed before being woven.

This linen is produced in small batches in Eastern Europe where there is a strong heritage of spinning and weaving linen fabric.

The example garment was made by Bethany, the shop owner, and she made the Rondeau Shirt by Sleeping Giant Patterns. She sized up to a medium and added 4.75" of extra length to the midsection for extra drama. She also eliminated the side seam slight curves and straightened them out to make it more boxy.
