Beige and Maroon Houndstooth Wool Loden

The wool Loden fabric with a houndstooth pattern in shades of beige and maroon is an elegant and timeless fabric, perfect for making up autumn and winter garments with a distinctly classic feel. Its design combines a small houndstooth pattern with wider check lines, creating a balanced print with the characteristic look of traditional tailoring fabrics.

Its composition of 60% wool and 40% 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 combination of beige, brown and subtle maroon-toned lines lends warmth and depth to the design. The maroon introduces a subtle touch of colour against the neutral background, resulting in a sophisticated fabric that is easy to coordinate, particularly suited to tailoring-inspired, British or country-style garments.

Suggested uses: coats, jackets, blazers, overshirts, capes, waistcoats, skirts, winter dresses, trousers and fashion accessories.

Sewing tip: as this is a fabric with houndstooth and checked lines, lay out all the pattern pieces in the same direction and allow a small extra margin of fabric to ensure the pattern matches correctly on the front panels, side panels, sleeves and pockets. Carry out a test ironing first and preferably use a protective woollen cloth to preserve the finish of the wool.
