Origin: The garment is part of a collection of clothing from Gammelgården in Storviksbacken, Storvik, Ovansjö. The garments were found in the underfloor joists upstairs in the early 1990s. The textiles are from throughout the 19th century. The tailor Anders Andersson-Wikblom and his wife Anna Zakrisdotter, known as Möss-Anna, lived in the house and are likely to have used the clothes.

Fabric qualities
voile – 77 g
Lightweight, flowing cotton fabric with a soft drape and a very smooth surface. Excellent for scarves and lighter aprons.
Weight:77 g/m2
Threads per decimetre: 366 x 368Cretonne - 121g
Plain cotton fabric with a slightly stiff drape. A bit thicker than voile. Best suited for clothing or stiffer neckerchiefs.
Weight:121 g/m²
Threads per decimetre: 302 x 272100% Cotton, plain weave
Print: Digital printing with OEKO-TEX certified (water-based) inks. NB! Cotton is a natural material that can have small loose fibres in the weave that lie on top of the fabric – therefore small white dots may appear on the finished product. These are in that case very small and few in number as both fabrics are of an even, fine quality. This can happen on basically all natural materials with this printing technique.
Production time: 3-8 working days
Production: Printed by CottonBee in Płock, Poland. Produced exclusively to order. No water is used in production, and electricity and raw materials are kept to a minimum. The print is fixed with heat, not chemicals.
Washing instructions: Wash by hand only in cold water to prevent shrinkage – cotton is a natural material that can shrink significantly in hot water (approx. 2–5%). Do not use detergents containing bleach. Where possible, wash items inside out. We recommend overcasting the edges of your fabric before the first wash to ensure the edges do not fray.The cloth has not been cut out or hemmed and is sent directly from the printer
