Tricia's journey with textiles traces back to her roots in Scotland, where her family's rich traditions in knitting and sewing instilled in her a deep appreciation for European heritage linen. It was amidst the rustic charm of her family's stone cottage that Tricia stumbled upon an ancient hand-loomed linen pillowslip, igniting a profound sense of inspiration and nostalgia.
In 2009, fueled by her passion for preserving and celebrating the evocative qualities of European linen, Tricia founded Rough Linen. Drawing from the heritage weight and timeless allure of our signature "Orkney," Tricia embarked on a mission to revive the essence of artisanal craftsmanship and the beauty of linen textiles.
At Rough Linen, we honor Tricia's vision by embracing the artistry of materials and processes, infusing each creation with the same sense of authenticity and heritage that inspired our inception. Our commitment to ethical practices and integrity reflects Tricia's unwavering dedication to quality and craftsmanship, ensuring that every piece resonates with a timeless elegance that transcends generations.
