VENLA was created with using heathered yarn colours. Heathering refers to the technique of combining two differently coloured yarns, with a new colour being formed before the viewer’s eyes. We twist this special two-tone yarn in our own mill in Lapua. The product is adorned with a decorative stripe woven from a thicker, plied yarn.

The structure of the VENLA pattern was designed to evoke an artisanal feel. Its creation was inspired by traditions, craftspeople, and history—as well as the coarse shirts worn by the brothers in Aleksis Kivi’s Seven Brothers, and the lovely Venla, daughter of the old woman from Männistö. The aim was to create a down-to-earth, yet not old-fashioned, pattern.

Washed linen doesn’t necessarily need any ironing, small wrinkles are allowed, even desired for! Linen is a natural material that feels pleasant on the skin, it’s very absorbent and dries very fast. For these reasons linen is an excellent material for towels. 100% washed linen has been wash treated during our production process, this is how we get the outstanding absorption capacity.

The towel features a hanging loop at the top. It can also be used as a baking cloth, hand towel, or small multipurpose cloth.
