Linen Cotton Fabric (60:40)
The look of linen with a softer hand and fewer creases, by the metre.
What Is Linen Cotton Fabric (60:40)?
Linen cotton fabric is a blend of linen and cotton yarn, and Fabloom's is a 60:40 linen cotton. It keeps much of linen's cool, textured look while the cotton makes it softer, quicker to relax its creases and more economical than pure linen. It is woven and dyed in Bhagalpur and sold by the metre from 50 metres per colour.

Why choose a linen cotton blend
Pure linen is the coolest fabric there is, but it creases quickly and its hand can feel crisp when new. Adding cotton softens the cloth, reduces creasing and brings the price down, while the linen keeps it breathable and gives it a natural slub.
That balance makes linen cotton the working fabric for garments that are worn and washed often: shirts, kurtas, uniforms, children's wear and everyday dresses, as well as cushion covers, table linen and other home textiles.
Dyes and prints evenly
Cotton takes dye readily, so linen cotton dyes to a full, even shade. It is also an excellent base for block printing and digital printing, both of which Fabloom does in house on the same order.
Best Used For
- Shirts and kurtas
- Everyday dresses
- Uniforms and workwear
- Children's wear
- Cushion covers and table linen
- Printed collections
Care
Linen can be machine washed on a gentle cycle in cool water, or hand washed, with a mild detergent and no bleach. Allow for some shrinkage on the first wash, or ask for a washed finish. Iron while slightly damp on a medium-hot setting. Linen softens with every wash.
Before You Order
Ask for a physical swatch before a bulk order, especially when an exact shade or hand matters. Hand woven cloth and dye lots both vary slightly, and that is a property of the fabric rather than a defect.
Ready stock is dispatched within 2 to 5 working days of order confirmation; custom dyeing and weaving take longer and the lead time is confirmed on the order.
Linen Cotton Fabric (60:40): Questions & Answers
What buyers ask most often, answered by our team at the mill.
What is linen cotton fabric?
Linen cotton fabric is woven from a blend of linen and cotton. It has the cool, textured look of linen with a softer hand, fewer creases and a lower price than pure linen. Fabloom supplies a 60:40 linen cotton blend.
Does linen cotton wrinkle less than pure linen?
Yes. The cotton in a linen cotton blend makes the fabric crease less and relax its creases faster than 100% linen, though it will still show some natural linen texture.
Is linen cotton fabric good for summer?
Yes. Both linen and cotton are breathable natural fibres that absorb moisture, so a linen cotton blend stays cool in Indian summer heat while being softer against the skin than pure linen.
Does Fabloom manufacture the fabric itself?
Yes. Fabloom weaves, dyes, prints and finishes in its own unit at Mohiuddin Pur, Bhagalpur, Bihar. There is no trading middleman between the loom and the order, which is why custom shades and prints can be run against a single buyer's specification.
Can I order a swatch before placing a bulk order?
Yes. Request a physical swatch through the enquiry form before committing to a bulk order. This is strongly recommended when an exact shade matters, because screen colour and dye lots both vary and a small difference between the photograph and the delivered cloth is normal for hand-dyed fabric.
Does Fabloom ship across India?
Yes. Fabloom dispatches to every pincode its courier partners serve, across all Indian states. Ready stock normally leaves the unit within 2 to 5 working days of order confirmation; custom dyeing, printing or weaving takes longer and the lead time is confirmed on the order.
