Flax to Linen

[shadow57]

Hello...

I had a go last year, at trying to produces some linen thread by growing some flax.

The result are shown in the attachments.

Great job, you'll be making your own table linen next!
i have a New Zealand flax in the garden and it produces some very strong string.

Nice photos; good stuff
Flax makes really good ropes too and if it's been properly combed before spinning the ropes are very good to handle and make excellent carrying straps.

Cheers,
