About
Ah, Klamath! Klamath is plain weave linen. The classic upholstery weight at 16 oz per square yard. Plain weave is the most basic of the three basic types of textile weaves. In plain weave cloth, the warp and weft threads cross at right angles, aligned so they form a simple criss-cross pattern. It is strong and hard-wearing. Linen is an extremely strong fiber that will give you many years.
