FAQs
Is ironing necessary for this duvet cover?
No, ironing is entirely optional. The Pure Washed Linen Duvet Cover is designed for a relaxed, laid-back aesthetic, and its natural wrinkles are part of its charm. If you prefer a smoother look, you can iron it on a medium setting.
How often should I wash my linen duvet cover?
For optimal hygiene and comfort, it's generally recommended to wash your duvet cover every 1-2 weeks, or more frequently if needed. Regular washing also helps linen become softer over time.
Will the color fade over time?
Linen is known for its durability, and the colors are generally quite resilient. To best preserve the Grey shade, wash with cold or lukewarm water and avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when drying.
What does 'GOTS certified' mean?
GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) certification means that the linen used in this duvet cover meets strict environmental and social criteria throughout the entire supply chain, from the harvesting of raw materials to the final product. It ensures the linen is organically produced and processed responsibly.
Can I use fabric softener with this linen duvet cover?
While not strictly necessary as linen softens naturally, you can use a small amount of mild fabric softener if desired. However, avoid overuse, as it can sometimes leave a residue on natural fibers or reduce breathability over time.
Is this duvet cover suitable for all seasons?
Yes, linen is known for its excellent thermoregulating properties. It's breathable and cool in the summer, helping to wick away moisture, and provides cozy warmth in the winter, making it an ideal choice for year-round comfort.
Troubleshooting
Duvet cover feels stiff or rough initially.
Linen, especially new, can feel firmer than cotton. Its softness increases significantly with washing and use. Wash the duvet cover a few times according to care instructions to accelerate the softening process.
Duvet cover appears wrinkled after washing.
The 'Lazy Linen' is designed for a relaxed, naturally wrinkled appearance, and ironing is optional. To minimize excessive wrinkles, remove the duvet cover promptly from the dryer while slightly damp and either line dry or smooth it out on the bed.
Duvet shifts inside the cover.
Most duvet covers feature internal ties or corner loops to secure the duvet. If your duvet cover has these, attach them to the corresponding loops on your duvet. If not, consider sewing small loops onto the inside corners of the duvet cover and duvet to prevent shifting.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
- Unpack: Remove the duvet cover from its reusable self-fabric linen bag.
- Inspect: Check for any loose threads or factory imperfections. While rare, it's good practice.
- First Wash (Recommended): It's advisable to wash your duvet cover before its first use to enhance its softness and ensure optimal hygiene. Follow the care instructions below.

Care
- Washing: Machine wash at a cool or warm temperature (typically 30-40°C or 86-104°F) with similar colors. Use a gentle cycle and mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals like bleach, which can damage linen fibers.
- Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or, for best results and reduced wrinkling, line dry. Remove promptly from the dryer to minimize deep creases. The 'Lazy Linen' look means ironing is entirely optional.
- Storage: When not in use, store your duvet cover in the provided self-fabric linen bag or a breathable storage solution to protect it from dust and maintain its freshness.
- Longevity: Linen naturally becomes softer and more supple with each wash. Avoid overloading your washing machine to ensure thorough cleaning and rinsing.
