A refined wool viscose fabric in a rich dark chocolate brown, combining a high 85% wool content with 15% viscose. The surface has a soft, smooth hand with a subtly brushed appearance, creating an elegant matte finish and a beautifully understated look.

At 245 gsm, this is a versatile midweight wool fabric that offers a balance of body and drape without the bulk of a traditional heavyweight wool coating. The high wool content gives the fabric warmth and substance, while the viscose contributes softness and helps create a more fluid hand.

The fabric drapes in smooth, rounded folds while retaining enough structure to create clean garment silhouettes. This balance makes it especially versatile for tailored trousers, skirts, dresses, blazers, vests and lightweight jackets, as well as layering pieces for cooler weather.

Its dark chocolate brown colour is deep, warm and timeless. The softly brushed surface subtly catches the light, revealing the richness of the brown while maintaining a sophisticated matte appearance. It is an easy neutral to pair with cream, camel, beige, black, burgundy and other autumnal tones.

Use a sharp universal needle appropriate for midweight woven fabrics and test pressing on a scrap before beginning your garment.
