Description
Beige is that shade you expect from linen: warm, sandy, looking unbleached. Mottling gives this surface depth, so it never turns dull even across large areas.
A cotton-linen carrying 55 % linen with 45 % cotton, weighing 155 g/m² at 135 cm wide, from 0.2 metres. Linen takes up moisture quickly and releases it just as fast, so this cloth feels cooler than cotton at the same weight. Wash on a gentle cycle at 30 degrees, press at a low setting. Finish your cut edges, because linen frays readily — zigzag or overlock will do. Residual shrinkage runs around 5 %, so it pays to add that when ordering.
What Baumwoll-Leinen Paul uni meliert Beige von Swafing is suitable for
- Tablecloths, because beige suits any crockery.
- Summer trousers, because this shade reads pale and light.
- Cushion covers, because natural tones stay calm indoors.

Frequently asked questions
Does it suit home decoration?
Yes, for curtains, tablecloths and cushion covers it serves well. Linen curtains hang heavier than cotton ones, reading calmer — though they need more fabric for the same fullness.
Why is linen called a summer cloth?
Because that fibre takes up moisture quickly and gives it off just as fast, and because it hardly clings to skin. So it feels cooler than cotton at the same weight.
Will it shrink?
Linen pulls together noticeably in a first wash. Wash your fabric before cutting, exactly as you will care for the finished piece, so its fit survives sewing.
Which needle, which stitch?
A universal needle in a medium gauge plus a straight stitch will do. Finish those edges, because linen frays readily where cut — zigzag or overlock handles it quickly.
