Perfectly Imperfect Notice:
This cloth was saved from a West Yorkshire woollen manufacturer, where it would otherwise have been destroyed. Rescuing good cloth from waste is what Fabworks is for. This piece carries some small stains on the cloth. We recommend wash testing a sample first, as they may lift, but we cannot guarantee that they will. Thoughtful pattern placement will work around any that remain. It is offered at a reduced price for this reason. We strongly advise ordering a sample, or a 0.5m Cut Length, to inspect the cloth in detail before committing to a project. View the other photographs to see the fabric closely and know exactly what you are buying.
Colour:
A rich, sun infused golden hue, the colour of statuesque sunflowers and honey mustard. This solid, mellow gold is perfect for those who crave colour and looks amazing colour blocked against equally rich shades such as teal, plum, fire orange and autumn leaf hues.
Properties:
A neat, smooth feel, with a stable and hard wearing hand plus a delicious drape that showcases a lustrous sheen, highlighting the fine diagonals of the twill weave. Versatile enough to keep you cosy and comfortable while maintaining an air of pulled together ease.
Garment Suggestions:
Perfect for classic trench coats, jackets, trousers (slim legged and wider legged), and waistcoats. For feminine styles, it is ideal for most skirt styles, pinafore dresses, shift dresses and dresses which require a good drape quality.
Create fit and flare styles with a retro vibe like wiggle skirts with fishtail hemlines, or flirty peplums and '50s style dresses that will look and feel fabulous made in this Mustard Gold.

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!
