This quality 100% Virgin Wool fabric is a true classic. Finely woven (with a double warp) from a high thread count of the strong and lustrous darkest navy (almost black), worsted yarns.
Properties:
The close twill woven construction of Marvelous Midnight produces a medium/heavy fabric that is dense and stable, thanks to twisted worsted yarns which are particularly lustrous and hard-wearing. This serge has a heavy drape quality, is less prone to fray, has a subtle sheen and is naturally water and soil-resistant, regulating the temperature of the wearer and so much more.
The ideal fabric for those concerned with sustainability and not wanting to wear fast fashion. Wool serge fabrics have been used for centuries to make military uniforms and other smart and hard-wearing apparel.
Garment Suggestions:
The Pattern Stash - Amelia Skirt will become an indispensable key piece within your wardrobe when fashioned in this hardwearing fabric. Add a matching The Pattern Stash's Jemima Waistcoat for a seriously snappy style. Add a matching blazer, that will go with everything! Emphasise the heavy drape quality of Marvelous Midnight by creating Riding style full-skirted and fitted bodice - Victorian style coats.
Other Uses:
Create seriously smart Baker Boy caps, flat caps and other timeless accessories from this Finest Virgin Wool Serge.
