I am obsessed with baking sourdough bread. I have done quite a bit of unscientific testing in my home kitchen on the fabric that keeps my bread freshest for the longest time. I landed on hemp linen, it is a bit heavier with a looser weave. I love this bag design because it accommodates loaves of different shapes, simply tie it closed. Each bag is machine-stitched with tea-dyed hemp linen fabric and has a plant-dyed patch with a hand-stitched wheat design. Choose between a terracotta, ochre, or green patch. Bags measure 16" wide and 16" at the tallest point.

A bread bag and a loaf of homemade bread makes the loveliest gift.
