My resident fabric expert tells me that the grills on my Original Advents are made of Rayon and are definitely not linen.
Take a short piece of thread and burn it , then smell the smoke and it is obvious. This is why it frays so readily and the weave distorts so easily.
This is a standard test for linen, silk, wool, cotton vs synthetics.
I am looking for a source as well. Lets try looking for Rayon.

Check out this site.
The color of pattern FR250 is pretty close, but it is a 2 over 2 weave, as opposed to the even weave (1 over 1) of the original. I have not seen actual swatches.

The reason I have not ordered from these people is that they have a 5 yard minimum, 36" wide at about $25 per yard. That is enough for 12 Larger Advents. (16 x 26)
It is not rayon but vinyl coated fiberglass. Should last for ever.
