Just as linen allows heat to evaporate in hot weather, it also helps your body retain heat when the outside temperature drops. Naturally grown, it insulates and regulates your temperature without stifling your body as a synthetic fabric might, allowing you to layer up whilst still feeling comfortable.
Pictured here in a gentle blend of pinkish-lilac and olive green; tones to celebrate glimpses of fresh life amongst the winter landscape. Reach for this scarf and find an easy way to brighten up cold days.

Eco Credentials
Flax is a strong plant best grown in northern Europe. It needs little to no fertilisers, and due to the local climate, little extra water. It doesn’t require many pesticides either, as it can grow in poor quality soil. The Advisory Commission Report to the European Parliament stated that flax cultivation has positive effects on eco-system diversity as it allows for an “environmental pause”. One hectare of flax can retain 3.7 tonnes of CO2. Every part of the plant is used, and what isn’t used to produce linen can be utilised to make linseed oil, paper, cattle feed, or even soap.
Linen is almost naturally organic. It’s completely biodegradable, recyclable, and due to its natural absorbency, requires less dye than cotton. Linen therefore scores high on the ecological chart.
Care Hand or machine wash on gentle setting using cold water. Do not tumble dry. Steam press on medium setting for a crisp finish, or hang dry and wear gently wrinkled for a lived-in look.
Manufacture
This garment will be carefully individually cut and sewn in small batches in our Oakham, Rutland design studio (England).
