Linen fabric basically refers to fabric made from flax fibers, however today it is often used as a generic term to describe bed, bath, table and kitchen textiles because traditionally linen was so widely used for towels, sheets, etc. As used today the word "linen" is descriptive of a class of woven textiles used in homes as towels, sheets, and tablecloths.
Although in the past the term was also used to refer to lightweight undergarments such as shirts, chemises, waistshirts, lingerie, and detachable shirt collars and cuffs. Historically, linens were manufactured almost exclusively of fibers from the flax plant but also hemp, cotton or a blend of these fibers.
Flax is one of the best fibers which come from the stem of the plant near the outer edge. It is one of the oldest textile fibers used by man, dating back more than 3000 years. Today flax is a prestigious, expensive fiber and only produced in small quantities. It has a long staple relative to cotton and other natural fibers.
