Cashel Linen Fabric Stripes 28ct Beige Stripes (3229) Zweigart - By the Meter

A linen that already brings its own design built-in. The Zweigart Cashel Stripes 28ct Fabric in Beige Stripes (3229) alternates wide bands of off-white and natural linen beige, creating a base with structure and visual rhythm before you even make the first stitch. This alternation opens up very attractive possibilities: you can embroider borders and repeated motifs by using the stripes as a compositional guide, reserve the light bands for main designs and the beige ones for minor details, or let the stripes do all the decorative work with minimal embroidery. It is a fabric that calls for home decor projects: table runners, kitchen towels, hanging bands, curtains, and accessories with a rustic and natural style.

With a 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 can provide. That is why Cashel is the linen with which most embroiderers make the leap from Aida, and the natural gateway to techniques like Hardanger or traditional embroidery.

Manufactured in 100% linen by Zweigart, this fabric 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 while working, and to wash it delicately to preserve its texture.
