Our Linen Honest Yarn shows the raw beauty of Belgian flax, spun in Bengal. It offers a wonderful buttery hand and the exceptional weight and presence that only linen can give.
Linen is one of the more challenging fibres to dye naturally, especially to dye well. But we feel we've nailed it. Beautiful rich jewel-like tones that are both deep and even. Lighter colours that are consistent, level, and delicate without being weak. Colours that are as satisfying to work with as the act of creating.
Maiwa's colour development and testing goes deep. We've spent decades beside the dye pot working with materials like cutch, madder, lac, myrobalan, pomegranate and of course, indigo. These yarns have excellent light and wash fastness — we are so proud of them.
