Introduction:

I've been saved from landfill!

Fabworks has acquired this wonderful cashmere selvedge trim from a local and well renowned, high end, natural fibre, fabric manufacturer in Yorkshire. There are so many creative uses that we knew that it was simply too good to go to waste. Presenting you with cashmere selvedge trim, a by-product of the fabric's production.

These colourful comfortingly soft and lightly brushed textured wonders form an integral part of the construction of the fabric, providing a stable edge to the fabrics whilst being woven, they are cut off the fabric before it goes to the finishers.

This collection of selvedges contains a mixture of cashmere yarn combinations perfect for textile artists, fashion designers and 'Fabaholics'!

Colours:

Taken from a wonderfully colour-infused plaid, this selvedge trim boasts a palette that reminded us of pretty viola flowers with dark centres like little bonnet-wearing faces. True purple and golden yellow, with accents of navy to deepen and darken this joyful palette.

 Uses:

Ideal uses include adding hand-fringed raw edges to your garments, chunky jumbo knitted rugs, bags etc, traditional rag rugs or incorporating them into large-scale woven art pieces and other artistic textile creations. Let your imagination lose and create some magic!!

Disclaimer: This trim is raw with an open, unfinished cashmere meaning there are loose fibres which may be irritable to those with allergies.

All cashmere selvedges are sold in half-metres units, to order 2 metres simply add 4 units to your basket.
