HEART OF HUDDERSFIELD
ALL WOOL & WOOL BLEND FABRICS
Fabworks stocks woollen fabrics in varying weights, textures & weaves, from floating fine wool challis to fine worsted suitings, all the way through to heavyweight coatings and plaids that are ideal for winter outerwear and soft furnishings round the home. Wool will keep you warm in winter and cool in summer, as it is naturally water repellent and also has some natural fire retardancy properties. Wool is an excellent choice for outerwear and perfect for jackets, coats, coatigans, capes and ponchos. There are plenty more uses for wool, such as hats, caps, bags and cushions. If you really don’t fancy getting out the sewing machine, it is so easy to make a lovely wool throw.
