Introduction:

This quality wool coating is a true classic. Expertly woven in Italy, originally for a top British designer. 

Colour:

Yellow Fair & Square Check has been created using predominantly black yarns and accentuated by a jaunty yellow windowpane check. The subtle windowpane check adds further interest to this hard-wearing coating fabric and will look fabulous fashioned into items that will maximise the impact of the large check.

Properties:

Yellow Fair & Square is woven from closely set, heavy-gauge, all-wool yarns. These cosy and naturally temperature-regulating yarns are highly twisted to produce extra density, thus producing a close twill woven fabric with a semi-ribbed, hopsack texture. This sturdy fabric is stable, has a heavy drape quality, and subtle sheen and is naturally water and soil-resistant. Wool serge fabrics have been used for centuries to make military uniforms and other smart, hard-wearing apparel.

Garment Suggestions:

Yellow Fair & Square Cocoon coats, classic overcoats, and stylish tailored capes will look magnificent especially if you play around with your cutting layouts and feature some bias-cut panels to flared cape styles and swing coats. Add a contrasting lining and you will have a garment to be proud of.

Why not try combining this fabric with its sister fabric: Red Fair & Square - Serge Wool Check.

Other uses:

If you want some quick and easy makes to furnish your home this cosy woollen will make hard-wearing lightly upholstered pieces and cushions! Create super easy envelope-style cushions and add some striking yellow or grey buttons to finish off. Use your off-cuts to create flat caps, baker boy caps, bucket hats and matching bags!

Really nice fabric

Perfect fabric for something like a light coat, exactly as described, has a decent weight to it but isn't too stiff. Might be a bit tricky to line up the design if doing a very fitted coat but you can also do some fun stuff with that.

Why choose wool fabric?

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!
