Notes:
Recently, the Polish National Fiber Research Laboratory provided linen samples. In addition to these Polish fabric samples, we also collected linen fabric samples which were made in Japan and throughout Europe. We have investigated hand properties of various linen fabrics, and identification of the Polish linen fabrics quality from those of other linen fabrics. The fabric hand of Polish linen fabrics is unique, it possesses a hand just between wool-like and cotton-like fabrics. We have clarified that the Polish linen fabrics are suitable for hari-type and tailored type silhouette designs for women's wear, and the fabrics are well-suited for finishing garment appearance.
