Linen bedding is beloved for being breathable, soft and luxurious. But it doesn’t come cheap, and is often significantly more expensive than its cotton counterparts, so it’s worth taking the time to care for it properly. With the right approach, linen can last for years.
Unlike some other fabrics, linen becomes softer with each wash, yet it can also be prone to shrinking, creasing and wear if it’s not treated properly. Knowing how to wash, dry and store it correctly can make a noticeable difference to its longevity and comfort.
