MEASUREMENTS: This stunning piece measures 19.5 yards long by approximately 20.5 inches wide ~ 

• CONDITION: This gorgeous textile is in original, unwashed unused condition ~ gorgeous condition. There are some marks that will wash beautifully. Within the first yard there are some larger storage marks that run horizontally across the bolt's width which may or may not wash.  These marks mostly appear on one side of the fabric. This is a very long bolt and there are little imperfections here and there such as a little bleed mark from the stripe, however generally it's in amazing condition indeed! ~ I recommend having this bolt professionally cleaned as it's SO long, it would be difficult to dry in a home dryer as one piece! ~

 ~*~The woman weavers of yesterday would spend their evenings weaving these amazing rolls of linen. It took the average woman 1 night to weave 60 centimeters ( 24 inches) of linen

WASHING INSTRUCTIONS:  ~*~ These rolls are 100%  machine washable, warm..if there is visible dirt, just add a bit of Oxywash! They are so easy to wash, simply spin dry then remove when wet. Roll the linen tightly and let sit overnight. In the morning unroll and allow to dry naturally~ this presses the linen and there is usually no need to iron ( unless you prefer it perfect). They can be dried in a dryer also! I like to tumble dry my linens as it adds a fluffy texture to the handle. Just be sure that the yardage doesn't get tangled up on itself in the dryer , causing creases! ~*~  I like to add Downy Ultra to my last rinse cycle for an added touch of softness~  Pure linen or hemp rolls tend to have no shrinkage, the rolls with cotton tend to have some shrinkage  . These rolls are tough and sturdy, built to last.....and last and last!! ~ The average age of these rolls is about 100 years old, they are wonderful textile treasures~*~ Hemp is built to last for many many generations making it a lovely textile for creating family heirlooms~*~ So easy to maintain, simply machine wash, tumble dry. They only get more and more wonderful with use ~*~

 All of my linen rolls are produced using natural fibers. Natural fibers have the irregularities and subtleties that are inherent ...adding to their rustic charm~*~  

  These rolls are increasingly difficult to find as they have been used so extensively over the past 20 years. This is a wonderful opportunity to own your own piece of textile history~*~
