Cashel Linen Fabric 28ct Blue Stripes (5459) Zweigart - Limited Edition

Limited edition. Zweigart has produced this variant of their Cashel Stripes linen in a limited run, so once stock is gone, it will not be replenished. If you have a project in mind that requires it, or you simply love the color, it is worth getting the fabric now and saving it for later.

The Zweigart Cashel Stripes 28ct Linen in Blue Stripes (5459) alternates wide stripes of off-white and a grayish light blue with a nautical feel, featuring that blend of dyed thread that gives linen its characteristic vibrancy. The combination immediately evokes the sea, beach huts, and nautical style, and is a base that works on its own: you can embroider borders using the stripes as a composition guide, reserve the light bands for main motifs and the blue ones for secondary details, or let the stripes themselves do the decorative work with minimal embroidery. Perfect for table runners, kitchen towels, hanging bands, curtains, and coastal or Scandinavian decor accessories.

At 28 count linen, it is traditionally embroidered over two threads, which is equivalent to 14 stitches per inch. In other words, you can use any chart designed for 14ct Aida and you will get exactly the same final size, but with the finer and more elegant finish that only linen provides. That is why Cashel is the linen with which most embroiderers make the jump from Aida, and the natural gateway to techniques such as hardanger or traditional embroidery.

Made of 100% linen by Zweigart, it stands out for its soft touch, its natural drape, and that subtle irregularity in the thread which is precisely what gives linen its character. It is advisable to finish the edges before starting, as linen tends to fray during work, and to wash it gently to preserve its texture.
