To make cloth from flax, first, the flax plants are harvested and allowed to rett, a process where they are soaked in water to break down pectin and separate the fibers from the stalk. After retting, the fibers are extracted through a process called scutching, where the outer stems are removed, and the fibers are then combed to align them. Finally, the clean flax fibers are spun into yarn, which can be woven or knitted into fabric. This process results in linen, a durable and breathable textile.
