Introduction:
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 roll came through the salvage in perfect condition with no fault, so it is offered at its full price.
Colour:
Last Glimpse boasts a classic dark navy tone, broken with the subtlest windowpane overcheck of fine red intersecting hairlines. This stylish and classic windowpane check is like the last glimpse of the sunset as it dips below the horizon. Windowpane checks can be attention stealing bold designs, but this subtle red on navy is sincerely discreet with a timeless air.
Properties:
Last Glimpse boasts 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. This versatile fabric will keep you cosy and comfortable while maintaining an air of pulled together ease.
