My friend, let’s talk about weaving with linen. You see, the weather is getting warmer and I’m starting to think about lighter fibers, like linen.

I don’t normally weave with linen (I’m more of a cotton girl), but it’s an interesting fiber with lots of possibilities, as well as pitfalls. In this episode of A Handwoven Experience I share my tips, trials, and tricks for weaving with linen. Because even the most finicky of fibers can give you amazing results. Happy weaving!

Show Notes –

More about linen – Boy, Gather came through with a wonderful blog post all about weaving with linen! There are some great tips and things to consider that will dovetail into today’s episode. Be sure to soak it all up right here. 

Another interesting fiber – If Tencel is an unfamiliar fiber for you, I have a great episode to warm you up. You see, Tencel has a lot going for it! And if you love the idea of working with a vibrant, silky yarn that acts a lot like cotton, Tencel is for you. Check out the episode, “Let’s Learn About Tencel” right here.
