Who Made This?
RCS Linhos
95% of all our linen garments start at this small-scale factory. With almost no linen weavers left in Portugal, we were so lucky to find this special one. The owner, Oscar, always teaches us something new and is always eager to learn different things.
Moodledoodle - Sewing Partner
A small family-owned factory where the workforce is 100% female. Visiting them is always a please and the icing on the cake is to meet Cristina, the extraordinary multitasker that manages everything.
What is Linen?
Linen comes from Flax trees, which can grow in poor land that is not used for food production - it can even rehabilitate polluted soil.
Rainwater is the most used way to cultivate flax, as it needs 60% less water than conventional cotton. That saves 307 litres of water per kilo of fibre compared to cotton (yes, a bit shocking).
How to Care for it?
We promise it's very simple!
Probably the biggest concern when buying a wool garment is how to care for it and make sure it doesn't end up in your child drawer because it shrank.
We promise it's very simple, let us help!
Wash Less
Rule #1: do not wash your wool garments every time you wear them, ok? Just hang it outside the house or in a damp bathroom, because wool cleans itself to some extent - if you have a tiny stain, why not spot clean it?
Wash on Cold Temperatures
Most washing machines are gentler than the old hand wash.
Here at home we always Wash on a Gentle Wool Cycle at Cold Temperatures (30º it's not cold , ok?). And don't tumble dry, please, it will felt that beautiful sweater.
When drying always Air Dry Flat, try to lay it out neatly so it retains its shape forever!
Golden Rule: Don't use fabric softner!
Fabric softner has enzymes that love to eat all that wool, and that is how you create pilling! Here we have hard water so we can't just ditch it all together, so we use vinegar instead - it works wonders and leaves absolutely no smell!
