In this week’s episode, we’ve invited a guest, Rosie Bristow, to tell us all about everything flaxen. Along with wool, flax was a mainstay fabric in medieval England, and the trade in it plugged Newcastle into extensive trade routes across Europe. We’ll chat about how flax was processed and used in medieval times, and about Rosie’s project to bring back small scale flax processing in the UK. You can find links below to some of the projects we talk about!
