Properties:
Texture: Superfine Wool, Micro Houndstooth features a soft, ultra-fine texture with an almost cotton-like feel, similar to wool challis, while retaining the natural temperature-regulating qualities of wool.
Handle: Stable length- and widthwise with a generous natural bias ease, making it particularly suited to bias cutting, fluid shaping and elegant draping.
Drape: Exceptionally soft and graceful, perfect for full gathers, flowing skirts, soft pleats and delicate cowl-neck details.
Garment Suggestions:
Types: Ideal for lightweight tailored garments and softly structured pieces, including tailored separates, blazers, wide-legged trousers and skirt suits. Equally well suited to retro-inspired silhouettes and vintage-style designs with a modern refinement.
Patterns: Some of our favourite patterns to consider are the Cordelia Trousers, the Ilford Jacket, the Amelia Skirt, The Coat, The Blazer, or the Jemima Waistcoat for a modern heritage twist.
Other Uses:
Accessories: Ideal for refined, structured accessories such as tote bags, shoulder bags, laptop sleeves, belts, caps and hats. The delicate micro-check adds subtle graphic interest while remaining elegant and understated.
Furnishings: While primarily a garment fabric, this wool also works beautifully for tailored home accents. Consider cushion covers, boxed-edge seat pads, blind trims and draught excluders, perfect where a crisp, uniform-inspired aesthetic is desired.
Upcycling: Excellent for scrap-friendly projects such as appliqué, patchwork or textile art. Offcuts can become contrast panels for garments or be transformed into characterful soft furnishings, fabric trays, coasters, or classic motifs like Scottie dogs, teddy bears and dachshund draught excluders.
