“This is the forest primeval. The murmuring pines and the hemlocks, bearded with moss, and in garments green, indistinct in the twilight.” So goes the Henry Wadsworth Longfellow poem—set in what was once called Acadia, now modern-day Maine—that gives its name to Portland-based Evangeline Linens, a new soft goods company from a native Mainer and veteran of the textile industry. Here’s a look at the offerings, inspired by the state’s wilds, rocky coasts, and pine forests.
