Introduction:

This warming Melton wool fabric is created by closely weaving 100% wool yarns on both the warp and weft. The fabric is then fulled, just one of the processes used in creating Melton to give that dense felt-like finish.

Colour:

Black Night - Wool Melton is a superb, classic black as dark and mysterious as its namesake. Classic Melton in classic black is a go-to for overcoats and so much more.

Properties:

This closely woven, dense felted fabric has a soft lightly brushed surface that produces a soft and cosy handle. Made from 100% Wool, our first-rate Black Night is stable both width and lengthways and boasts a soft, drapey, heavyweight handle too.

Garment Suggestions:

Meltons are versatile felted fabrics with hardly any fraying to the cut edges and have the same appearance on both sides. The fabric is traditionally used for coats, jackets, waistcoats and many historical and costume applications as well as capes and stylish wraps.

Other Uses:

Meltons also make an ideal base for 2-D needle-felted projects, which can be made into bags, cushions, wall hangings, etc Black Night is also ideal for blankets & throws too! Why not personalise yours with colourful needle felting or applique for a folk style or team with your offcuts of Yorkshire Tweed fabrics for a wonderful combination?

Create deliciously curated, colour-blocked creations by teaming Lavender SkyPetrol Blue, Mustard Seed all these Meltons have a similar feel and weight.

This is my second purchase of Wool Melton, just in a different colour. I have not used it yet, but my first purchase of the fabric made up a coat very well.

Excellent!

This is the second colour I have purchased in this fabric, the first was Midnight Starless Sky. The fabric is such good quality and quite weighty. Looking forward to making my second wool coat.

Why choose wool fabric?

Benefits of sewing with Wool! 🐑

We love wonderful wool! Why? Because it looks beautiful, well yes but did you know wool has a series of superpowers that make it the most incredible natural fibre, suitable for more garment suggestions and sewing inspiration than possibly any other?

Wool has a unique naturally crimped 3D structure which attributes to some brilliant properties & makes it a great fabric to wear throughout all the seasons.

Naturally Breathable: This amazing 3D crimped structure promotes air circulation allowing air to pass through the fabric, allowing for circulation and ventilation for your skin to breathe, keeping you cool.

Shower Resistant: Sheep naturally produce a waxy substance called lanolin. As sheep live outdoors, this naturally occurring wax helps to protect sheep from the elements, naturally shedding water & keeping them dry. This same property is retained within the wool fibres when spun into yarn.

Moisture Absorbing: The moisture-retentive superpowers of wool! It’s hydrophilic core gives wool the ability to wick away moisture keeping you dry and comfortable – this possibly one of our favourite properties because you can stay fresh when wearing wool, from autumn right through to spring!
