a breath of fresh air

simple

uncomplicated 

design perfection...


Linnet, located in Kyoto, Japan is one of my 
favorite online shops to visit for inspiration. 
They have the most beautiful textiles...


"Linnet is a company that has been created by 
the fusion of different skills partly by architecture, 
and the other by art and design."



"The company was named after the bird's name 
who likes to eat flax seeds,
which is the law material of linen, 
as linen is our most favorite material."



 Linen. wool. organic cotton. cotton wool



muted palettes and gauzy fabrics


natural fibers


linen waffle


linen canvas



linen hand crochet and tweed




I'm sure you can see why it's one of my favorite places! 
Having purchased fabrics from Linnet, I can vouch for their 
prompt customer service and quick shipping. 
The prices are stated in yen, but there is a link on the site 
for currency exchange rates. 

enjoy!
