Bast fiber

Tailoring

Linen clothing is suitable for straight line or contour line in structure. Because of its poor draping performance, it should avoid using pleat or making open skirt, otherwise it will give people a bloated impression.

Because of the poor elasticity of linen fabric, it is not suitable for tight or heavy structure design.

The shrinkage of hemp fabric is large (similar to that of printed cotton cloth), and it needs to be soaked and pre contracted before cutting. The temperature is relatively high (180 - 200 degrees Celsius).

For linen fabrics with thick stripes on the surface, the trimming should be aligned to make them symmetrical and beautiful. The breaking strength of flax fibers is high. They should be sewed with long and sharp stitches and fastened sutures.

Linen fabric has poor wrinkle resistance and abrasion resistance. It is easy to wear at the crevice. It can be decorated with open and double lines to increase the area of wear.

Wearing of hemp garments

The key to wearing bast garments is not to wear them too long.

In summer, clothes that are closely dressed, if not frequently changed, will easily cause the fabric to be yellow and difficult to wash.

Frequent washing can overcome the fatigue of linen fabric and prolong the life of clothes that are easy to wear.

Secondly, it is best not to wear a woven linen garment to sit and rest at will, because the linen fabric is easy to crease, especially the wrinkle after heavy pressure is not easy to recover, affecting the appearance.

Washing of clothes

The washing requirements of bast fabrics are basically the same as those of cotton fabrics, but the soaking time should not be too long.

Because the hemp fibers are generally rigid and have poor cohesion, they should be lightly rubbed. They should not be rubbed vigorously on the washboard. Avoid using hard brushes to avoid fuzzing.

Pay special attention to it, otherwise you will feel itchy when you wear it again.

After rinsing, it can not be squeezed or dehydrated, so as to prevent the fiber from slipping and affect the appearance and durability.

When you are in the sun, you should stretch the collar and seams of the clothes to cool the sun, but not in the sun or too long to prevent fading.

The stain on linen fabric is also the same as cotton fabric. But if there is a slight cigarette burn on linen fabric, wipe it with a slice of lemon and then put it in the sun for a while.

Collection of bast garments

Hemp clothing can be folded and stored in storage, but it must be folded and smoothed. The creases should be regular, preferably folded according to the original creases.

If it's a linen suit, it should be used.

Hang in the wardrobe to keep the garments neat.

If long-term storage of hemp clothing, the wardrobe must be dry, to prevent moisture absorption of bast garments damp and mildew.
