A beautiful 100% wool lightweight woven fabric featuring a classic yarn-dyed windowpane check. The contrasting yarns are woven directly into the fabric to create the pattern, giving the check beautiful depth, subtle texture and a refined textile appearance.

At 175 gsm, this wool is considerably lighter than a traditional wool coating, making it a versatile choice for garments where you want the natural warmth and character of wool without heavy bulk. Its lightweight construction works beautifully for both tailored and more relaxed silhouettes and makes it especially suitable for layering pieces and transitional wardrobes.

Available in two distinctive colourways: warm Ochre Windowpane, featuring an earthy ochre ground with contrasting blue-grey and neutral lines, and classic Navy Windowpane, featuring a deep navy ground accented with warm rust and neutral check lines.

This lightweight woven wool is an excellent choice for trousers, skirts, dresses, vests, overshirts and unstructured jackets. It can also be used for lightweight blazers and other tailored garments where the windowpane design can become a beautiful feature of the finished piece.
