But when a linen fabric is completely new, it can feel a bit stiff, and it takes a couple of washes before it has that soft feel and elegant fall you want in a curtain. “Linen products are often washed already when they are manufactured to become softer, but we discovered a method that showers the curtain with hot air to get the same softening effect as a wash” says Alexander. The method means that your newly bought curtains fall softly and evenly already when you hang them up – and less water and chemicals are used. Later, when you wash your curtains, they only become more beautiful. If you prefer a relaxed and washed feel, you can hang them up straight away without ironing the natural creases.

Product details
The fabric dims daylight entering the room and reduces glare. It gives a comfortable sense of privacy as people cannot see in. At night, silhouettes can be perceived from outside when the room is lit.
The color, shade and tint of linen varies according to how the flax crop has been grown and harvested. The 100% linen in this product has been dyed to enhance the inherent color of the yarn and to prevent the fabric fading in sunlight.
Durable and timeless linen with an irregular texture that feels firm but gets softer after each wash. Ideal for any season as the natural fibers breathe and allow air to pass through and circulate.
Curtains with heading tape allow you to hang the curtain directly on the curtain rod using the rod pocket or tabs. You can also hinge the curtain onto a track rail using gliders and hooks.
The heading tape makes it easy for you to create pleats using RIKTIG curtain hooks.
The curtain is 98⅜" long and perfect to hang above the window without having to hem it.

Since the fabric will shrink when washing it is a good idea to wash the curtains prior to cutting/hemming.
Use SY iron-on hemming strip to shorten the curtains without sewing.
16 gliders and hooks are usually recommended for each curtain with a width of 57⅛". You can increase or decrease the number depending on whether you want narrower or fuller folds in the pleats.

GreatAlisonThese linen curtains are semi sheer - maybe letting in too much light for some. For us, these hang on a street facing living room window and we appreciate the light that filters in while proving privacy. If you’re looking for shade from the sun, these aren’t it.
Panels different lengthKristiEvery panel was a different length. Some were worse than others. I did not wash the curtains.
True linen fabric and trendySemIt looks even better when you twist it and wrinkley. I got the green but the white looks good too.
They SHRINK :(AngelaLove these curtains - light, airy, good quality, perfect length. Bought 4 pair for our bedroom. During spring cleaning, washed them in cold water on gentle and hung to dry. They are now 2-3 inches off the floor. Super sad.
IKEA - how the mighty has fallenAlexOh IKEA
Let’s not pretend you actually care about. Ad reviews bc if you did you’d make the quality and value priced stuff you USED to make it 10 to 20 years ago.
I used to go into IKEA and always come out with at least one big blue bag of stuff. I can’t even count now the amount of times I’ve gone in the last 5 years and left with nothing. Mainly bc so much is now overpriced for the poor quality so many items are now.
As for those curtains, let’s be realistic. They are NOT worth $75. As one customer said it’s better to pay a little more and get better quality as well as actual correct length. More importantly the blue Dytsg at my IKEA looks NOTHING like the deep blue in the photos on the website. Even odder is the Dytag linen pillows they should match are a different blue then the curtain and closer to the blue on the website.
Great fabric and perfect length LisaThe curtains are the perfect linen like texture, perfect coverage but still let's in light and the perfect length for my high ceiling.
Lovely fabricPamelaThese 100% linen curtains are perfect for my windows. They finish off the decor of the room adding softness and a light gauzy feel. I’m really happy with them and while I think they are fairly priced it was exceptional to find them on sale!
Dytag curtainsFelicityLovely sheer linen curtains--replacing 15 year old IKEA curtains, lol.
Great linen curtainsAnonymous reviewerI really like these curtains. They allow light to filter in, so they are not room darkening, but I love seeing the morning light coming through. I wear an eye mask, so no need for room darkening. Once ironed, they hang nicely. Recommend!
Lovely linen curtains IgaI love these linen curtains however they are quite pricey. You can find a lot of different and cheaper options at IKEA that will give you almost identical looking curtains. They will be not 100% but still looking great. I love everything linen so I would buy those again.
Not the same quality MarciaI’ve been buying these for years and have been amazed at the quality.
Not anymore, they are so cheap and thin as well as more expensive!
great linenLindaI have used these numerous times for projects, and love how they sew up
Not the same curtains they were four years agoAnastasiyaI bought about eight sets of these four years ago for various rooms and they were absolutely gorgeous and luxurious. I needed to replace two sets because they got stained and went on the IKEA website to order. I was already annoyed that the price has gone up 25% since last time I bought them, but okay, inflation I guess. However, when I put them next to the curtains I already had, my heart broke to realize that the quality, thickness and luxury of the curtains were all gone. Now, these are just some midrange average linen product you can pick up at Walmart that looks just okay. I would rather pay more money but get the beautiful product I used to love. So sad that you did this, IKEA. I hope the corporate leadership reads this and feels at least a little bit bad for what they did.
Just as expected....AwesomePageIkea linen is worth every penny!
So beautiful, but no more light beige???PeggyI bought five pair of the natural or light beige and couldn't have been happier. I want to buy more but can't find that color anywhere!!! Not online, not in stores. I'm so sad because they are beyond beautiful.
Love it!MargaritaWanted to get linen curtains and these are pretty good and very affordable.
change in quality of DytagCathryni have been buying this curtain from Ikea for years. The most recent examples are nearly half the fabric weight of what they were previously. Also, the quality of the structural band at the top is much less. It has less stiffness and strength. The fabric quality is much less. Also, the seams came undone in several places with a single wash.

Curtains that fall just as they should
DYTÅG linen curtains filter the light from the outside and give your room a warm and snug feel. To make the curtains fall softly, already when you hang them up, we’re using a method where the linen fabric goes through a method that showers the linen fabric with hot air. It has the same softening effect as a wash but reduces the consumption of both water and chemicals.
Story
Curtains that fall just as they should
DYTÅG linen curtains have several important tasks. They filter the light from the outside, give a little privacy and contribute with a warm and snug feeling. And for the linen fabric to get just the right soft fall, we use… air.
Linen textiles have been used for thousands of years and are still appreciated today. Our product developer, Alexander van der Spree, is a dedicated fan. “I love linen. It’s easy to care for, hard-wearing, and durable – and only gets more beautiful and softer the more you use and wash it.
Hot air replaces water
A comfortable light and a cozy feel
DYTÅG curtains are available in several colors and are easy to match with different styles. Alexander explains how they also give a special light depending on which color you choose. “The slightly irregular structure of the linen filters the sunrays through the curtains and lets in a comfortable and warm light. It gives your room a natural and cozy feel.”
Material
Linen
Linen, with its distinct irregular texture, is timeless and works well whether you are aiming for a rustic, casual or elegant look – all depending on how you coordinate. The natural fiber feels firm but gets softer after each wash. It breathes too, making it ideal for any season.
Function solution
The fabric dims the daylight
The fabric dims the daylight entering the room when it is brighter outside, and reduces glare. It gives you a comfortable sense of privacy because people cannot see in during the daytime. At night, when the room is lit, it is possible to perceive shapes and silhouettes from outside.
