Robert Kaufman | Essex Yarn Dyed | Denim

The Robert Kaufman Essex Yarn Dyed – Denim by Robert Kaufman Fabrics is a high-quality linen-cotton blend made from 55% linen and 45% cotton, combining the best of both materials. The iridescent color effect created by the yarn-dyed shot technique makes every meter a unique piece – the fabric shimmers in slightly different shades depending on the light. In addition, its pleasant weight of 190 g/m² gives it a nice stability.

With it, you can sew, for example, robust everyday bags and accessories that gain a natural elegance due to the linen character, or garments like shirts, blouses, and skirts where you are looking for a structured look with some body. Cushion covers or small home accessories also turn out wonderfully with it.

The fabric feels firm yet pleasantly tactile – typical linen-cotton: not stiff, but with substance. The medium drape ensures that it is easy to work with without slipping away. The slight surface structure and the iridescent color effect give every sewing project a vibrant, handcrafted depth that is almost never found in ready-made goods.
