I love summer! It is my favorite season because I am one of those odd ducks – or maybe I should say lizards (!) who love hot weather. This summer, we have all been hammered by extremely hot weather, which brings to mind the wonderful attributes of linen and cotton. When the temperature goes up, linen and cotton are a perfect choice – not only for wearing, but for sitting on! Both are cellulose fibers that have a natural ability to absorb moisture. They are cool to the touch and can be spun and woven in a variety of ways, making them both versatile and very comfortable. Check out our wonderful linens and cottons and think about warm summer days. You may not love the hot weather as much as I do, but as I heard the other day – “you don’t have to shovel heat!” |
Stay Cool
