Description
Classic black, beautifully warm and wonderfully versatile, this 100% wool boiled fabric has a dense, softly felted texture and a substantial yet comfortable handle. At 380gsm, it offers excellent warmth and structure without feeling excessively heavy. The knitted construction has been boiled to create a compact surface with a softly textured finish, giving the fabric a lovely combination of body, softness and natural wool character.
Perfect for timeless winter coats, relaxed jackets, coatigans, capes and cosy gilets, this is a fabric you'll reach for year after year. Black goes with absolutely everything, and the understated finish makes it equally suited to minimalist outerwear or something a little more dramatic. Particularly lovely for simple, unfussy patterns that allow the texture and quality of the wool to do the talking.
How do I care for this fabric?
Boiled Wool is a purely natural fabric. It has a natural lanolin protection which makes woollen products so easy to care for. Boiled wool needs to be dry/steam/fresh air cleaned.
- If a boiled wool coat has just got slightly dirty, it is fine to shake or brush it out very carefully using a fine haired brush that will not damage the wool.
- To get rid of unwanted smells in boiled wool garments, place them in the bathroom when you take a shower. The air humidity has a "self-cleaning" effect on wool.
Steaming to keep the fabric fresh Please note!! test on a small piece first to see how your fabric is reacting to heat. Use a low heat with steam.
- Steaming your wool fabric using an iron should be carried out in a methodical no rush way to ensure all areas of the fabric are covered.
- Set the iron to a wool setting and hold the iron approximately 1.5cm/1 inch above the fabric. Hold the iron there for around five seconds before moving on to the next section.
