Descrizione
Specifications:

Weight: Medium / Heavy

GSM: 400

Composition: Lambswool & Mohair

Width: 158cm / 62.2inch  

Pattern repeat: 1cm / 0.5inch

Colour:

A palette of captivating muti-toned blue yarns of Azur Blue and Slate, (like the depths of an Irish Loch) is elevated with the addition of a natural white yarn that creates a horizontal running stitch feature.

The chunky yarns woven in groups adds definition to this superb basket weave. Look closely and you'll find a sunken treasure trove of Donegal flecks like precious gems!

Properties:

This immaculately woven Irish Chunky Basket Weave is created from heavy gauge lambswool and mohair yarns to produce a heavy-weight, lightly basket textured fabric that's stable. Gentle bias ease, yet malleable and boasting a heavy drape quality.

Lightly brushed for a soft and cosy finish, this overcoat and winter jacket weight fabric will keep the cold weather elements out and warm you up with natural and breathable warmth that can only be lambswool and mohair.

Garment Suggestions:

Overcoats, duffle coats, peacoats and jackets, bomber jackets, worker jackets/ shackets, gilets etc. 

Other Uses:

Perfect for seriously snug throws and blankets, loose cushion covers and light-wear soft furnishings.

Sourced As Deadstock:

This fabric is from the Fabworks x Avoca collaboration for A/W 2024, that features a collection of deadstock luxury dressmaking fabrics & trimmings.

Delivered to Fabworks straight from the Avoca garment makers, this fabric has very limited stock availability and cannot be repeated once sold out. If you've spotted something you like, don't leave it too long before ordering!

Fabric colour true to website photo

I've purchased fabric online previously and have been dissapointed that it hasnt matched what was shown on the website, however this fabric was exactly as shown in both vibrancy of colour and quality.
My only annoyance was with the courier the company uses, in this case DPD who caused a lot of inconvenience by leaving the parcel at a drop off point despite having instruction to leave in a safe place if not in - which they didnt have to do as I was home at the time and no attempt to deliver was made. I do not drive and there was not an option to have the delivery rescheduled. I realise this is no fault of Fabworks however it has put me off using a company that uses DPD as a courier in future.

Avoca Deadstock Fabrics

Explore all Avoca surplus fabrics

Fabworks x Avoca

Fabworks’ association with Avoca began in 2011, when Fabworks Mill Shop was only a fraction of what it is today, and way before Fabworks Online existed. We were approached by Avoca with an offer to buy their surplus fabric from the previous seasons' collections. What an opportunity! A deal was struck, and what arrived at our warehouse a few weeks later was the most amazing selection of Irish-made pure wool fabrics, plus all the accessorising elements within the Avoca ladieswear collection (elaborate trimmings, gorgeous embroidered silks, lightweight satins, Liberty jerseys) and the cherry on top of the cake – Irish-made Donegal Tweed!

The working relationship between Fabworks and Avoca blossomed over the next few years and allowed Fabworks to develop its focus on high end ladies’ dressmaking fabrics and away from the lower end of the textiles market.

Four years and several thousand metres of fabric later, Fabworks took a bigger step than ever before, and collaborated with Avoca to commission its own range of Irish-made pure wool fabrics which marked the launch of Fabworks Online, November 16th 2015. This was a defining moment for Fabworks, being the very first collection of fabrics that we commissioned ourselves. With a range of herringbones in iconic Avoca colour-rich palettes, this was Fabworks’ first taste of proper manufacturing in the 21st century.
