From Canvasbacks, this is a fantastic cross-dyed linen, giving it a somewhat irridescent quality, and the colors are dark orange and espresso, creating a terra-cotta shade. Medium weight, soft and malleable with a nice linen-like drape (a bit crisp), suitable for moderately drapey or tailored garments. Very versatile, make any number of coordinating tops and bottoms. Check Shannon's guide for working with linen.
