Red Punk Graffiti - Designer Sherpa Fleece is a super snug, cosy and warm, Sherpa fleece, so soft you just want to curl up and cuddle up in it! Originally used by a top British designer so you know that the luxury factor is most definitely present. This graphic softy has 40% virgin wool in its fibre content! The eye-catching rich red and contrasting black sherpa fleece has a graphic- retro punk/ graffiti meets animal design, very '80s - '90s!
Finely intarsia knitted from finely blended virgin wool, acrylic and polyester fibres and brushed to its super snug finish, with the look of lambs fleece. This quality sherpa fleece is dense, but not too heavy and has a soft, malleable drape quality which begs to be made into all those comforting products that we associate with fleece type fabrics. Red Punk Graffiti has excellent retentive stretch across the width and a good amount down the length.
This go-to fabric for cosy outdoor and leisurewear clothing will wash (wool wash 30 degrees) and wear easily and is quick to dry when wet. The brushed mixed fibres shrug off light showers and accidental spills, making it ideal for a host of other uses. Graphic designed sherpas have been making a comeback for a couple of years and we don't see any sign of them disappearing. Everyone from budding fashionistas to designer dogs will want to wear garments created in this quality fabric.
Create boxy lumberjack and bomber-style jackets, add contrasting details like showerproof quilted yokes and sleeves, pipe the pocket and zip edges in contrasting binding for a sporty style. Alternatively, you can make snug oversized sweatshirts, cosy funnel necked, kangaroo pocket fleeces for the whole family. Available in two colours to suit differing tastes. Cardigan /Coatigan styles will look fabulous made in Red Punk Graffiti, create hats, caps mittens scarves and gloves, and don't leave out your fur babies - this polar fleece will make first-rate dog apparel!

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!
