Care & washing

Allow 2-10% shrinkage to be on the safe side. Wash the fabric before making up, in the same way you'll wash the finished make, drying methods included, so it settles once rather than after it's sewn.

Test a sample area first to find the most suitable way to wash it. We can't accept liability for fabrics washed or treated incorrectly.

Care & washing

Beautiful fabric which I’ve used to make a tailored shirt. Very pleased with the results and will definitely order more fabric from Croft Mill in future. I’m very impressed with the quality of the fabric and the reasonable prices.
