Previous posts have mentioned that linen should be mangled - ie wetted,
then rolled with a rolling pin (or similar heavy object), I think
between towels for protection, but no doubt one of the weavers on the
list will describe the exact method. I did this with a small mat I'd
made in linen - it does bring out the sheen and gives the piece as a
whole a much softer handle.
Bev, can you give better instruction as to how to go about it?

Now a question about my linen scarf: it is very stiff. It is not
comfortable for my neck. Does it have a solution (washing or ironing, for
example), or should I use it as a table runner? Thank you for your opinions
in advance!
