This white linen hankerchief is personalized with a simple, sweet date, perfect for weddings, births, and anniversaries. The embroidery is done by hand for a beautiful and elegant pocket square.

This handkerchief is made from 100% Irish handkerchief linen, for a crisp, cool texture that will only get better with use. Linen is stronger, absorbs more water, can withstand higher heat, and lasts longer than cotton, and the Irish weave the finest linen in the world. These handkerchiefs are hand-cut to a generous 13 inches and hemmed with a narrow rolled hem, for a personal touch that extends to the smallest details.

The embroidery, done in any color or shade you choose, consists of 1/4 inch tall numbers in either
12-3-45 or 12.3.45 format. Please leave your date in the Notes to Seller box at checkout. Each is embroidered completely by hand - not machine - and, although it takes more skill and more time, the results are worth it.

Please - I love to have a personal relationship with each of my customers. Message me with the initials and date or leave a note in the box when you check out. Custom requests are welcome! I proudly stock the entire DMC line, so if there's a shade you need to match, just message me and I'll send you a pdf file of all 450+ colors, so you can find a shade that works for you.

Care information

Linen handkerchiefs may be washed via delicate cycle in a washing machine (no bleach) or for best results, by hand. Iron hot, with steam, on the backside of the work. Any stitches pushed out of place from the iron can gently be prodded back into place. A cotton or mesh laundry bag will help protect your piece from getting snagged.

Temari should not be washed, just dusted if necessary. If needed, you can wet a cloth in hot water and wring it out quite well, and use that to spot-wash. Temari are made of fibers all the way through, so a wash or soak would mean that the inside would never dry.

Our embroidered blankets are made with wool, and should be handwashed gently in cool water.

Goldwork embroidery should only be washed by a professional. Other embroidery is best cleaned as for temari (especially framed hoop work) though wearable accessories may be put through the wash on a gentle cycle or hand washed.
