What is that damn Damask anyway?
A. Hey, watch your mouth – this is a family website! Damask weaves come made in linen, cotton, synthetic or blended fibers. Damask is most commonly found in table linens. The damask cloth for table or bedding are most commonly made of flax or tow yarns, but sometimes made partly of cotton or synthetic fibers. The finer damask textiles are made of the best linen yarn, and although the latter is of a brownish, ecru color during the weaving processes, the ultimate fabric color of damask is pure white.
