Monk's cloth is a loosely woven cotton or linen fabric made of coarser yarns that drape well.
The cloth is 100% cotton and can be purchased in a variety of colors at craft and fabric stores.
The cotton will shrink when washed, so should be pre-washed before so as to achieve the correct sizing before stitching.
Swedish dresses were decorated for traditional outfits with a variety of threads.
Today, cotton Floss and yarns are used on the fabric to create beautifully decorated items.
