$30.10/metre
Out of Stock
Description

A unusual handloom cloth in a warm milky brown twill with bands of white and indigo running parallel to the selvedge.

Suitable for trousers, dungarees and jackets. It would be perfect for our Harlenes and the Ottoline jacket.

  • 94cm wide.
  • 100% cotton.
  • 8oz, 270gsm.
  • Allow for 3% shrinkage when washing.
  • The stripe runs parallel to the selvedge.
  • Country of origin; India.
  • As our Indian cloths are handmade, sometimes susceptible to irregularities in the weave or print, this is all part of their charm and are not classed as flaws.
  • For the first couple of washes, place the fabric in the washing machine drum with a handful of table salt. This will help fix the dye to prevent it running.
  • Wash at 30 or 40 degrees with a non bio detergent. Do not tumble dry.
  • As all computer monitors show colours differently, we recommend ordering a sample of the cloth to check it is the right colour and weight for your project.
  • Thread match Gutermann Sew All 444.

Nutmeg Stripe Handloom Twill is suitable for the following patterns in our Workbook: Haremere and the Strides.

 

Washing Instructions

We recommend pre washing your denim before sewing. Putting a large piece of medium-heavy weight denim into the washing machine can sometimes lead to white creases in the denim, this is because it is a stiff fabric so it doesn't have room to move around. We recommend doing the following to help this not to happen:

  • Wash your denim on its own for the first wash.
  • Sink your denim in water before hand, letting it fully absorb, so you are putting in the denim already wet.
  • If you can break up your denim fabric into half this will help.
  • For the first wash use a delicate 30 degree cycle with a low spin.
  • If any white creases develop ironing whilst still damp will help.
  • Do not tumble dry.

When you have made the garment we would recommend washing it inside out.
