list
Hi everyone! I'm translating a list of descriptions of clothing. I'm confused here if 'lino' and 'lino crudo' refer to linen or to the colour 'flax' as suggested by Wikipedia. I assume it would be the colour because I don't think you get tweed made from linen (although correct me if wrong).
Abrigo corto en tweed de lino crudo y azul marino.
Tejido [1}tweed de lino{2]

flaxen yellow (raw flax)
As the full line of description is immediately followed by another color '... and marine blue', it stands to reason that this is also a color and as lino is flax, this would be a raw flax which is a yellowish color also known as flaxen yellow

Linen tweed certainly exists (https://www.google.es/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instant&ion=1&es... and the word generally used to describe the colour of raw (i.e. unbleached) linen is "ecru" (http://www.collinsdictionary.com/dictionary/english/ecru; http://www.wordreference.com/es/translation.asp?tranword=ecr... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ecru)
