Introduction:

This superb crinkle textured linen and cotton blend comes to you in a classic fresh tone (like mist clinging to a mountainside), making it ideal for a plethora of pleasing garment projects.

A new addition to the website and manufactured by the same renowned European company as our summer Linens of 2021. These new additions are the same quality and with even more colours designs and natural fibre types.

Suitable whether you are clothing you and yours, or producing a range of niche boutique wear. Natural fibre blend fabrics with timeless appeal. 

Design:

Into the Mist - Jacquard Crinkle Linen Cotton Blend boasts a wonderfully textured look and feel. This is thanks to the fine linen and cotton yarns and the textured jacquard weave, which is woven into an almost leopard spot design. The lightly raised patches/spots have a blister cloth/cloque look.

Properties:

This blended fabric gives you the benefits of both wonderful natural fibres. Cotton blended with linen produces a softer, finer fabric which results in fewer creases when worn, which in turn makes it easier to iron.

The blistered areas occur when the yarns shrink and crinkle at a different rate to the background areas in the finishing process. This fresh, light and airy natural blend fabric boasts a reassuringly soft (almost ethereal) drape quality and is stable across the width and length. The crinkled nature of this fabric makes it easy-wear and easy-care, similar to cheesecloth or seersucker.

Garment Suggestions:

Classic neutrals form the mainstay of many wardrobes and this cool linen blend can be worn all through the seasons. Into the Mist will make stylish key pieces. We think this gorgeous fabric has a very artisan like quality, perfect for creating Folkstyle clothing (add some cotton lace and smocking or pintucks) and these will become heirlooms of the future. Alternatively, create long-line shirts and seriously stylish chic pieces worthy of a Vogue photoshoot. The Makers Atelier has some seriously chic simple pieces which are just the ticket!

Our very own Pattern Stash: Cordelia Trousers, Amelia Skirt, Lynsey Dungarees & Jemima Waistcoat are suitable to use with the medium weight linens which have slightly more structure. The use of interfacing and or interlining may be required on areas that require more structure such as waistbands, collars etc.

The Layer Up Collection by Sew Different is also ideal for creating a capsule wardrobe of fresh spring-summer linen and ( linen blend) makes you will want to take through into autumn. 

This excellent fabric will pleat, tuck and form full gathers perfect for re-creating historical styles and the current trend for prairie/ buffet style dresses (Wildergown style) Boho and "#cottagecore" style clothing. Look to designers such as Gudrun Sjoden for style inspiration with a folk style twist. Folkwear Patterns have an extensive range of historical-based shirts, blouses and dress patterns suitable for modern-day wear but based on timeless designs for beautiful slow sewing projects.

For more modern styles look to the classic elegant lines of pattern makers such as:

• The Makers Atelier - The Tie Detail Top. 
• Merchant and Mills - The Trapeze Dress
• The Assembly Line - Long Sleeve Tunic and Cuff Dress Patterns. 

Choose simple sleek lines and cuts for perennial style and garments which fall elegantly from the body.
