Essex Yarn Dyed | Classic Wovens | Striped Linen Cotton Fabric | Robert Kaufman

The Essex Yarn Dyed Classic Wovens collection by Robert Kaufman combines the natural beauty of linen with the softness of cotton in a premium yarn-dyed woven fabric. Unlike printed fabrics, the coloured yarns are woven together before the fabric is made, creating rich stripes with beautiful depth, texture, and lasting colour. Medium weight with a breathable feel and a structured yet fluid drape, this fabric is equally suited for garments, accessories, quilting, and home décor.
