Post by: Marc St Louis on January 12, 2018, 07:40:45 pm

My wife found this video on making linen from flax plants, I thought it was interesting. I have disabled the link a bit

Too much advertising on youtube.  I'm sure you can figure out how to fix the link to make it work

It was English but his accent is heavy

The video is very interesting, but It did not show how to make linen. It showed how to raise and process flax to produce fibers that could be used in making linen. It would have been nice if I could have understood what was being said. I kept wondering what they would do with the "discarded material". It looked like it might make good pillow stuffing or quilt batting.

Don;

If you haven't figured it out add another "w".
