Description
Boiled wool does not fray — edges can stay raw, which makes coats and jackets noticeably lighter. Weight per square metre comes to 260 g/m², width to 140 cm. It is woven from 100 % wool.
In Smoke Blue the fabric reads matter-of-fact and calm. For everyday clothing that is the least complicated choice. The edges do not fray — finishing is therefore often unnecessary and saves a step. A sample answers more questions about handle and drape than any description. Before cutting, a look at the care symbols on the article pays off.
What Boiled Wool in Smoke Blue is suitable for
- bags and rucksacks
- seat pads and covers
- dog coats

Frequently asked questions
How do I wash functional fabrics?
Cool, without softener and without a dryer. Softener coats the fibres and disables water repellency — the commonest reason a jacket suddenly soaks through. A finish can be revived later with a spray or a special detergent.
Which needle do I take?
A microtex or jeans needle, depending on thickness. More important than the type is that it is sharp: a blunt needle pushes the coating aside instead of piercing it.
Does it suit children's clothes?
Very well, especially for muddy trousers, rain jackets and outdoor gear. Since the goods barely shed and wipe clean, they survive a day at nursery.
May I iron the fabric?
Better not. Coatings and laminates do not take the heat and lift or ripple. If you must: from the reverse, at low temperature and with a pressing cloth between.
