merchant&mills | elan green organic cotton/linen

Deep green forest, gently soaked with morning dew – this Elan Green brings this natural shade directly into your fabric stash. A blend of European-washed linen, organic cotton, and recycled linen creates this charming balance between natural robustness and pleasant lightness.

Elan Green is a medium-weight cotton-linen blend fabric with a slightly natural slub texture – for character without drama. This blend of 47 % linen, 11 % recycled linen, and 42 % organic cotton provides softness to the touch and a beautiful drape. With approx. 7 oz / 240 g/m² (140 cm wide), it is ideal for airy blouses, popular Merchant-&-Mills patterns like The Scout or Hattie & Ellis, as well as casual pants and summer dresses.

Details

• Material composition: 47 % linen / 11 % recycled linen / 42 % organic cotton – GOTS & Oeko-Tex certified 

• Weight: about 7 oz / 240 g/m² – a pleasant middle ground between structure and drape 

• Width: approx. 140 cm (55″) – generously sized, ideal for patterns 

• Care instructions: Washable at 30 °C with non-biological detergent, do not tumble dry, dry flat; wash dark colors separately as they may bleed slightly at first. After washing, the fabric may initially appear slightly crinkled – softens with wear.

Application examples

• Summer dresses & loose fits: Cuts like The Scout, Hattie & Ellis, or The Clover stand out especially charmingly in this deep green.

• Blouses & shirts with character: Natural slub and matte surface create a noble effect – whether Dress Shirt or Swing Top.

• Light pants & skirts: The Florence, 101 Trousers, or Trapeze benefit from the texture without stiffness.

• Casual-style home textiles: Loosely hanging curtains, light blankets, or accessories like table runners – for a sofa-soft yet rustic home.
  With a wink: A fabric so green that even moss gets jealous – and pleasant to work with.
