Evenweave fabric Zweigart Cashel 28 ct 3281/100 White

Zweigart Cashel 28 ct linen fabric in the classic color 100 White is a flawless basic foundation that should be in every stitcher's stash. This pure white shade perfectly highlights the vibrancy of your threads and makes any design expressive and high-contrast.

Features of Cashel 28 ct fabric:

• 
  

  Optimal count: 28 count means 112 threads per 10 centimeters. When stitching over two threads, the stitch size perfectly matches the popular Aida 14 fabric. This is an ideal choice for those who want to transition to evenweave but find 32 count (Belfast) too fine for their eyes.

  
  


• 
  

  100% natural linen: The fabric features a noble texture with natural thread thickenings (slubs) characteristic of linen. This is not a flaw, but a signature trait of the natural material that adds a special charm to the finished piece.

  
  


• 
  

  Flawless Zweigart quality: The fabric holds its shape perfectly, does not distort when stretched on a hoop or frame, and maintains ideal stitch proportions thanks to the even thickness of the warp and weft threads.

  
  


• 
  

  DMC floss color equivalent: White. This is a pure white color that serves as a perfect background for both delicate pastels and rich dark shades.

  
  

What projects is it suitable for?

• 
  

  Bright modern designs and samplers: The white background creates maximum contrast, making the thread colors literally "glow".

  
  


• 
  

  Practical application: Due to its density, strength, and durability, Cashel linen is excellent for sewing tablecloths, decorative pillows, napkins, towels, and eco-bags.

  
  


• 
  

  Traditional embroidery: An ideal base for Ukrainian folk embroidery, drawn thread work, Hardanger, and other counted thread techniques.

  
  

💡 Stitcher's Tip: For working on 28 count, it is best to use size 24 or 26 tapestry needles. Since this is natural linen, be sure to finish the edges of the fabric (whipstitch by hand, zigzag on a sewing machine, or use fray check) before starting, to prevent them from fraying during extensive stitching.
