We are so excited to add Irish Linen to the Chilcott British woven fabrics collection, the Scottish Harris tweed has proven so popular that we thought we should add some crisp Irish Linen to our range.
Linen is a textile made from the fibres of the flax plant. Its credentials for being a sustainable fabric are incredibly good and hence why we are keen to add it to our story around British made natural fabrics.
We believe linen compliments our 100% British wool blankets and Harris Tweed range.
We are delighted to source the linen from Baird McNutt who have a history of weaving and dyeing cloth since 1912.
We have chosen 8 colours from Navy Blue to Oyster Grey and lots of colours in between!
The bright colour kit bags are lined with white untreated waxed cotton and the darker colours with tan waxed cotton plus an internal pocket 12cm by 10cm inside the Travel style kit bag.
The waxed cotton is produced by British Millerain in Rochdale, who have been manufacturing since 1880!

The Linen kit bags are designed, cut and sewn in our Chilcott workshop using Irish linen. We line the inside with wipeable cotton fabric, just case any thing spills its easy to wipe clean. Each kitbag comes with a miniature lavender bag.
