Norwegian flax (Linum usitatissimum)

Before the introduction of cotton and synthetic fibers, linen held a significant place in Quebec households of yesteryear. It was used everywhere, from sheets to socks! And even before that, this plant has quite a history! Linen was probably the first plant fiber to be woven. It is believed to have been first domesticated in the Fertile Crescent region. Remains dating back 36,000 years have been found in a cave in Georgia. It was also a favored textile in ancient Egypt. The fiber produces a flexible, lightweight, absorbent, thermoregulating, and durable fabric, which explains its popularity. The plant is easy to cultivate, and its delicate blue flowers are charming. The fibers are found in the heart of the stem and are extracted through a controlled decomposition process called retting. The Norwegian flax is part of the flax preservation program.
