28 count Cashel Linen comes in a large variety of colours and is much softer than standard linen, which makes it a little easier to work with. It is 100% linen. It has the appearance of a basket weave and offers a more “old fashioned” look to a piece. Linens can be more challenging to use then Aidas as they require more skill to control the tension of the floss for even stitches. It is common for linens to be stitched over two in the higher counts. Linens come in several different counts, with 32 and 28 counts being the most popular. When stitched over two, 32 count becomes 16 count, and 28 count becomes 14 count.

Any pattern can be converted to be stitched on a different fabric count than it calls for, it just changes the size of the completed piece.
Use our online fabric calculator to help you figure out the size of fabric you will need depending on the stitch count of your pattern. Just for your reference here is the math behind it...
Let's say you have a pattern that is 84 stitches X 84 stitches. To figure out the fabric size needed, you divide the number of stitches by the stitch count. So...
84 ÷ 14 = 6" (final piece will be 6" x 6")
84 ÷ 16 = 5.25" (final piece will be 5.25" x 5.25")
84 ÷ 18 = 4.66" (final piece will be 4.66" x 4.66")
84 ÷ 20 = 4.2" (final piece will be 4.2" x 4.2")
As you can see, the higher the stitch count, the smaller your finished piece will be.
