Fabric - New Zealand Merino/Possum/Cashmere, Soft Gray, with Black and White random stripes
110cm width. Price is per centimeter.
100% New Zealand Merino wool warp.
New Zealand Cashmere/Possum/silk blend weft.
We wanted to play around with random black and white stripes. So, the warp was made up to be half black and half white threads, which were then tied onto the loom in a random order. The idea was to weave with a single colour weft to create a stripe effect, without being hard stripes. This roll of fabric woven with a soft grey Possum, Cashmere and Silk blend resulting in fabric with a softer fall than would be had if the weft had been the same merino yarn as the warp.
A fabulous neutral to pair with your favourite shade.
Suitable for outer wear garments.
