This beautiful linen tablecloth has a few unusual features, one of which is that there is no border, with the pattern simply an alternation of a large “table” of little squares and a beautiful blooming leaf motif. Another feature is that the warp is single-ply unbleached linen while the pattern is half bleached, which is a reversal from a traditional white warp and darker pattern weft. The bonus here is that if one is using fine single-ply linen warp for the first time, the unbleached is the most durable and easiest to work with, since it has been processed less than yarns put through any bleaching. This is a great project for anyone new to fine single-ply linen.
