100% Wool Knit fabric Black
The apex of what you want in a knit – a willowy, graceful hand with a great thickness and medium weight that will allow for outerwear garments. This is paired with a fluid liquidity that would lend itself to a dress or bottom weight garment. Versatility, but also exceptional quality that will last.
Medium to medium/heavy (255 gsm), 2 way stretch with the width, 50″ wide.
Use this as you would any wool, cashmere woven with stretch or any medium to heavy weight knit. Comfortable, fashionable and wrinkle resistant.
Dead stock from a mill in the US – it can be reproduced, but we happened to get the last run that was overstocked.
Pattern Suggestions: Bar none, the best thing to make with this is the lovely Sigrid Knit Coat from Style Arc Patterns.
Other honorable mentions: LILJA DRESS from Named Patterns a wrap dress (so many wrap dresses that would do!)
The Morris Blazer from Grain Line Studios would be comforting, as there is enough firmness in the fabric stretch composition to make it happen.
Simplicity S9010 – a knit dress and tunic would be a great and lasting staple of the slow fashion wardrobe. Also the Simplicity S8657 caftan.
Price is per Yard.
