Green Siena Wool Tweed

The Siena Green Wool Tweed fabric is an elegant, nuanced fashion fabric, characterised by a check pattern measuring approximately 4 x 4 cm. Its deep green background is combined with multicoloured yarns in shades of brown, terracotta, blue and unbleached ecru, along with small accents of other colours, creating a richly textured surface with an attractive visual depth.

Its composition of 65% wool and 35% polyester combines the warmth and characteristic look of wool with the durability and stability provided by polyester. It has a width of 150 cm, a highly versatile measurement for various fashion and garment-making projects.

The Siena Verde design forms an elegant grid using yarns of different colours, thicknesses and textures. Green takes centre stage, whilst the fine multicoloured yarns outline the checks and give the fabric that irregular, sophisticated look so characteristic of wool tweed. An original combination to make up garments with personality, from tailoring-inspired designs to outfits and Chanel-style jackets.

Ideas for use: Chanel-style jackets, blazers, lightweight coats, jacket and skirt sets, waistcoats, skirts, dresses, trousers and fashion accessories.

Sewing tip: as this is a tweed with checks of approximately 4 cm, it is advisable to allow a small extra margin of fabric to match the pattern on the fronts, sides, sleeves and pockets. Overcast or neaten the edges after cutting to prevent fraying, and for jackets or structured garments, use a lining fabric to achieve a cleaner, more professional finish. Always carry out a test ironing first and use a woollen cloth to preserve the texture of the tweed.
