Linen vs Cotton

Cotton and linen are regularly compared with one another as both are derived from natural plant fibres. If you’re wondering which one is the perfect choice for whatever you’re trying to create, here are some key things to know.

Linen Is Stronger Than Cotton

Linen is a very strong fabric and is around 30% stronger than cotton. It’s one of the most durable fabrics out there, so it’s a fine choice for upholstery or any home decor projects that require a good amount of durability.

Linen Is Moisture Wicking

Nobody can doubt the breathability of cotton but linen fabric is also highly breathable and it wicks moisture. This means it dries quickly and feels nice on the skin as it’s not as absorbent as cotton. Linen fabrics are widely used to make cooling clothing and bedding that stops the wearer from sweating. The moisture-wicking properties also prevent shrinkage in the wash and make it a great option for tablecloths.

Linen Fabric Looks More Luxurious

The textured nature of linen fabrics makes them look more high-end than cotton. For this reason, linen material is regularly seen in dressmaking or when sewing other clothing and luxury curtains. It gives a classier look to your creations!

Linen Has More Longevity

When you buy a metre of linen it will last much longer than a metre of cotton. This material responds better to countless washes and so you get amazing value for money from your purchase.
