Linen is an easy fabric to look after and can be machine washed on a gentle cycle or hand washed, making sure to use low temperatures in lukewarm or cold water.
Linen fabrics become softer and more absorbent with each wash, so there’s no need to use fabric conditioners, as this may have a negative effect on the fabric’s composition.
When drying your linen garments, be sure to reshape them while they are damp, and air dry them flat or on a hanger for best results.
You don’t need to iron your linen pieces because the natural creases add to the relaxed appearance of each garment; however, if your linen has become excessively creased, lightly iron it on a low setting or steam it to remove more stubborn creases.
