Glencoe double-faced fabric wool tweed in Emerald Green and Ochre

The Glencoe Double-Faced Wool Tweed is a unique winter fabric that stands out for its rich colour and texture. Its multicoloured checked pattern in shades of emerald green, turquoise, ochre and subtle orange accents creates a vibrant and sophisticated combination, perfect for making up warm garments with character.

With a width of 150 cm and a composition of 50% wool and 50% polyester, it combines the warmth and characteristic look of wool with the durability and stability provided by polyester, resulting in a versatile and very special winter fabric.

Its main appeal lies in its double-faced fabric with two different finishes: one side features the characteristic look of tweed, whilst the other offers a striking long pile finish that retains the checks and adds volume, warmth and a particularly attractive texture.

The pile side also features a subtle shiny appearance that enhances the shades of green and ochre when caught in the light. Thanks to this combination of surfaces, both sides can take centre stage within the same garment.

As a double-faced woollen tweed, it allows you to create interesting contrasts by using the pile side on collars, lapels, cuffs, pockets and facing details. It is particularly suitable for coats, jackets, capes and waistcoats, as well as winter accessories where you wish to highlight the fabric’s texture and colour.

Suggested uses: coats, jackets, capes, waistcoats, overshirts, winter garments, bags, hats and fashion accessories.

Sewing tip: before cutting, decide which side will be the main side and always follow the direction of the pile on all pieces. When working with the long pile side, it is advisable to cut the base carefully to avoid unnecessarily severing the fibres. For a professional finish, allow for extra fabric to match the checks correctly in the most visible areas.
