Colour:
This first-rate knitted 100% Boiled Wool fabric boasts a golden tone filled with sunshine goodness, like a field of proud sunflowers with their heads turned to worship the sun. These golden tones have a warmth that's not brash only mellow like autumnal sunshine and sweet summer honey.
Nature replicates this colour from the petals of flowers to the pollen and the honey bee. Embrace this life-giving hue and wrap yourself in its sweet amber warmth. Team up with the other jewel hues of Deep Ocean, Magenta Clematis, Plum Wine, Croquet Lawn and Classic Teal.
Disclaimer: This fabric is a restock from a new dye batch, making it a slightly different shade compared to the original Sunflower Gold which is now sold out.
Properties:
The standout properties of boiled wool are that this chunky woolly fabric boasts a soft and malleable drape quality, with a slight natural knitted stretch across the width and a natural ease down the length, yet is still stable and easy to work with!
The closely fused yarns mean that boiled wool does not fray so you don't need to finish or neaten the edges. You can even forgo adding a lining too, since boiled wool is cosy enough and easy enough to wear that lining isn't necessarily required. Win! Create garments with unique styles, try putting seams on the outside and use them as a feature. There are so many projects that you can get your teeth into with this one!
One part of the manufacturing (during the finishing processes) that creates boiled wool is to treat the fabric so that the knit shrinks. It is then felted together - just like if you put a jumper in the hot wash by accident, only with Boiled Wool this is a deliberate process that helps to create all those great properties that dense knitted fabrics carry. Made using bouclé looped yarns, the classic textural detail of boiled wool is apparent, adding a depth to the colour and, although all designs of this fabric are plain, the colour is definitely not 'flat'.
