    Sewing advice
    : Narrow rolled hem all around, sew with white cotton thread or linen thread

    Dimensions of the original: 34x33cm, but should have been 34×36 as it has been mended
    Origin: The garment is part of a collection of clothing items from Gammelgården in Storviksbacken in Storvik, Ovansjö. The garments were found in the attic on the upper floor in the early 1990s. The textiles date from the entire 19th century. The tailor Anders Andersson-Wikblom and his wife Anna Zakrisdotter, called Möss-Anna, lived in the house, who are probably the ones who used the clothes.

    Printing: Digital printing with OEKO-TEX certified (water-based) inks. NOTE! Cotton is a natural material that can have small loose fibers in the weave that lay on top of the fabric - therefore small white dots may appear on the finished product. In this case, these are very small and few in number as both fabrics are of 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 only to order. No water and minimal electricity and raw materials are used in production. The print is fixed with heat, not chemicals.
    Washing instructions: Hand wash only in cold water to avoid shrinkage – cotton is a natural material that can shrink significantly in hot water (approx. 2-5%). Do not use detergents with bleach. Products should be washed inside out if possible. It is recommended to sew the edges of your fabric before the first wash to ensure that the edges do not fray.

    The garment is not cut or hemmed and is sent directly from the print shop.
