Yarns are dyed into specific colors before being woven into a design. Often varying weights or textures of yarn are woven into the cloth to create a more textured fabric that is frequently double sided. This process takes additional time, planning, & engineering to achieve a particular design & will account for the slightly higher price point of yarn-dyed fabrics. in the photos you will see a picture of a few bags from my book, Sew Bags, The Practical Guide to making Purses, Totes, Clutches & More. The bags are made with Essex Linen-without washing the fabric, & backed with interfacing to provide additional structure. The next to last photo in the listing features multiple color ways of this linen, which have all been machine washed & dried. See how soft & comfortable the fabric looks? Perhaps you’d like a signed copy of my book, Sew Bags, The Practical Guide to Making Purses, Totes, Clutches & More, to make a bag for yourself - or a gift. https://etsy.me/2YV8KzT PRODUCT DETAILS Supplier: Robert Kaufman Designer: Robert Kaufman Collection: Essex Yarn Dyed SKU: E064-1178 INDIGO Type: Yarn Dyed Linen Fiber Content: 55% Linen/ 45% Cotton Weave: Plain Weight: 5.6 oz/yd Width: 43" Care: Machine wash cold Increase the longevity of your fabrics by hand washing, or on a gentle cycle in cold water with like colors using a fragrance free, non-chlorinated detergent.
