Tiny interlocking four pointed stars, with curled points so they look like starfish, are woven into this amazing Dobby weave fine worsted. The superfine combed wool threads used to make up this complex weave are alternating black and white groups of threads on the warp and alternating blue, grey and black threads on the weft. The three combined colours make this suiting the perfect alternative to a grey suiting or even a puppy tooth check suiting.
The fabric is soft strong and stable, yet lightweight with a soft drape, but it will give a natural warmth because of its wool content. Don't think this is just for suits! While it is perfect for men's and ladies suits why not try retro 1950's gathered waist shirt dresses, 1960's Mary Quant style dropped waist pleated skirt dresses, long tunic style shark bite hem tops, pinafore dresses and A-line skirts.

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!
