A sense of comfort and casual wear

A good woolen fabric feels soft, springy, and dry. It retains heat without retaining moisture, and adapts well to body temperature. Lightweight wool fabric is suitable for everyday wear, while coarse wool fabric and fleecy wool fabric provide extra insulation in cold weather. Wool fabric rarely creases and retains its shape during long hours of use.

Types and methods of weaving

Popular options are worsted wool fabric for smooth suits, wool twill for trousers, and melton wool fabric for coats. Woolen knitwear provides elasticity and comfort, while elastic woolen fabric does not restrict movement. Blended wool fabric combines wool and synthetics, which ensures durability, reduces the cost of wool, and facilitates care. 

Best use

Wool suit fabric is suitable for custom-made jackets, skirts, and sets. Black woolen fabric, gray woolen fabric, and brown woolen fabric are suitable for austere styles, while red woolen fabric and white woolen fabric add color to outfits. The wool material for blankets is suitable for sketches and bedding, and the wool-coated fabric is well-cushioned in the cold season.

Care and restrictions

Ventilate your clothes frequently, brush gently, and avoid frequent washing. Woolen materials can shrink when heated and delaminate when rubbed, so cold water and uniform drying retain their texture and shape.
