This delightful 100% linen fabric comes to you in a classic military green tone, making it ideal for a multitude of practical and stylish sewing room projects.

Colour:
Khaki Green is just as its name suggests a fabulously soft, cool, breathable linen fabric, woven in a classic twill weave with superfine silken khaki green yarns throughout the warp and weft. The classic twill weave and khaki green tone are the perfect combination to add practicality and style.
Properties:
Linen has been used for centuries because of its beneficial properties: cool and breathable, getting softer with washing & wear, and linen is impervious to moths and resists dirt and stains. Linen will not form lint or pill and can be washed at high temperatures with only moderate shrinkage.
The characteristic slubs (once viewed as a fault) are now part of the aesthetic appeal of quality linen fabric. It is stable, soft and has the feel of a favourite linen garment with a pre-washed hand. This medium-weight fabric is closely woven and has excellent opacity.
Garment Suggestions:
Khaki Green will form crisp details (with a little light interfacing), on collars, cuffs and waistbands. Used in quantity it will form soft and full feminine gathers, with a reassuring drape, plus neat pleats, and pin-tucks. Perfect for utility-style clothing like The Ilford Jacket.
Soft, breathable and comfortable you will want to make a wardrobe full of key pieces for a superb, summer linen look. Its medium weight and soft drape make it the ideal candidate for a plethora of uses from the stylish to the practical. Our Pattern Stash - Lynsey Dungarees are the perfect utility-style clothing as is The Ilford Jacket.
Put Khaki Green to use for simple boat-necked tops and classic shirts, it's also perfect for creating layering garments such as vest tops, drapey tunics and pinafore dresses. For an on-trend boho/ prairie style. The Megan Nielson Protea Capsule Collection is an ideal place to start for these soft gathered styles.
Pleated culottes, shorts and trousers, like our Pattern Stash - Cordelia Trousers that will look superb in this versatile linen fabric. Add a matching blazer using The Avid Seamstress - The Blazer pattern. This will also look superb with our Pattern Stash - Amelia Skirt.
Team this versatile linen fabric with others from the range for a totally complimentary wardrobe in cool and breathable natural fibres.
