• Flax Fiber

Flax stem cross-section, showing locations of underlying tissues. Ep = epidermis; C = cortex; BF = bast fibres; P = phloem; X = xylem; Pi = pith

Linen is a bast fiber. Flax fibers vary in length from about 25 to 150 mm (1 to 6 in) and average 12–16 micrometers in diameter. There are two varieties: shorter tow fibers used for coarser fabrics and longer line fibers used for finer fabrics. Flax fibers can usually be identified by their “nodes” which add to the flexibility and texture of the fabric.

• Etymology

The word "linen" is derived from the Latin word for the flax plant, which is linum, and the earlier Greek λίνον (linon). This word history has given rise to a number of other terms:

Line, derived from the use of a linen thread to determine a straight line

Lining, because linen was often used to create an inner layer for wool and leather clothing

Lingerie, via French, originally denotes underwear made of linen

Linseed oil, an oil derived from flax seed

Linoleum, a floor covering made from linseed oil and other materials

• Linen Currency

Linen was sometimes used as a form of currency in ancient Egypt. Egyptian mummies were wrapped in linen as a symbol of light and purity, and as a display of wealth. Some of these fabrics, woven from hand-spun yarns, were very fine for their day, but are coarse compared to modern linen. In 1923, the German city Bielefeld issued banknotes printed on linen. Today, linen is usually an expensive textile produced in relatively small quantities. It has a long staple (individual fiber length) relative to cotton and other natural fibers.
