Description
Caroline, light grey linen with a silvery sheen
Caroline is the palest of the grey Geniksa designs, lighter than Heron and warmer than white. It suits bedrooms that should feel airy without giving up colour entirely. The cloth weighs 175 g/m², spun from Nm 26 yarn, and serves well in every season. Flax draws warmth and moisture away from the skin, so it feels noticeably cooler than cotton. Geniksa washes and mechanically finishes the linen; as a result it lies soft and creases less. In this Classic version, a standing hem replaces the coconut buttons of Caroline Buttons. Caroline Classic sits in the Geniksa bed linen collection beside Heron and Celeste.

Care
Caroline washes at up to 60 degrees, like all coloured linen, but a cooler wash helps it last. Optical brighteners do the most harm, because they bleach soft tones and make the fabric look washed out. Leave room in the drum for the cloth to move. Then spin briefly and gently, since linen needs some residual moisture to stay smooth. If you iron, a hot linen setting on still-damp cloth works best. That way the sheen keeps its quiet glow.
