The softly purple-tinged gray of our Minerva Heathered Lilac Gray Lightweight Linen Chambray resembles the color of clouds just after the rain has stopped. The addition of linen's naturally slubbed texture to a fabric composed of a white warp and dyed weft lends this material a heathered coloration overall. Soft in hand with a malleable drape and no stretch, make summer-ready pieces like swimwear cover-ups and airy trapeze dresses that take advantage of linen's amazing breathability, or craft crisp shirts and blouses to be worn year-round! Slightly translucent, a lining may be desired for some projects but isn't necessary.
