Comfortable Linen and Cotton Linen Fabrics for Everyday Life

Linen and cotton linen fabrics are loved for their natural texture. Simple yet warm, they blend naturally into everyday life. Their smooth and gentle feel against sweaty skin makes them especially perfect for the warmer seasons ahead.

This time, we’d like to introduce three new arrivals from our linen and cotton linen collection: “Sun-Dried Linen,” “Natural Linen,” and the “Yarn-Dyed Cotton Linen Washer Series”!

Sun-Dried Linen (“Tempiboshi” Linen)

One fabric we especially want you to notice in this collection is the “sun-dried” fabric, called “Tempiboshi” in Japanese, made in Enshu (the western area of Shizuoka Prefecture in Japan).
After being carefully dyed by skilled craftspeople, the fabric is slowly dried in the sun and wind. This process creates a soft, fluffy texture with natural wrinkles. This relaxed look is the special charm you can’t find in mass-produced fabrics.

(Currently available in Japanese only. Please wait a little longer for the English version.)

Tempiboshi Linen No.40 (Item no. TL4400)

The easy-to-use classic is “Tempiboshi Linen No.40,” with a nicely balanced thickness.

It can be used all year round, making it perfect for clothes and small handmade items.

Tempiboshi Linen for Stoles (Item no. TL60ST)

This lightweight linen fabric for stoles has a smooth texture that works perfectly for spring and summer.
It can be used for sun protection or against air conditioning, and one of the joys is how the texture becomes even better the more you use it.

Another special feature is its rarity — only 20 cm can be woven in a single day.

Tempiboshi Linen Waffle (Item no. TL4030)

The textured waffle fabric has a cute look and a soft feel. It is also highly absorbent, making it great for towels, kitchen cloths, and home décor items.

Ecru Linen Series

Next, we’d like to introduce the “Ecru Linen Series,” which comes in different thicknesses for different uses.
The firm “heavyweight type” is great for bags and small accessories, while the lighter “standard type” is easy to use for Sashiko, sewing, and more, expanding the fun of making things.

Another great point is the ecru color, which matches easily with many kinds of fabrics and decorations!

Heavyweight Linen No.8 (Item No. T4000P)

Standard Linen No.40 (Item no. T4400P)

Yarn-Dyed Cotton Linen Washer Series

Item no. SEW275

Cotton linen fabric is also a popular choice. It has a nice balance of softness and natural texture, making it suitable for everything from clothing to home décor.
Another great feature of the Yarn-Dyed Cotton Linen Washer Series is its variety of patterns. Simple designs like checks and stripes make it easy to use for many different projects.

The More You Use Them, the More You’ll Love Linen and Cotton Linen

Linen and cotton linen fabrics made from natural materials are loved not only for their natural look, but also for the comfortable feeling of becoming softer and more familiar with use.
Each fabric has its own charm, from the soft texture unique to sun-dried fabric, to the gentle look of waffle fabric, and the easy handling of cotton linen fabric. Choosing fabrics that match your projects and daily life is part of the fun.
Because these are fabrics you use every day, it’s nice to choose materials that fit naturally into your life and quietly make it more comfortable. We hope you’ll find your favorite linen or cotton linen fabric and enjoy your handmade time.
