• 100% New Zealand wool • 60in/152cm wide • 18 oz/yd or 11 oz/sq yd • 2/2 twill • Made in the United Kingdom This 100% wool fabric has been specially commissioned by The Tudor Tailor from a Yorkshire mill and is available in various colours. The weave is a 2/2 twill which has a good stretch across the bias, making it an excellent choice for bias-cut hose. It also has a lovely drape and makes up beautifully for petticoats, kirtles, coats and gowns. The range of colours is based on the mass survey of 57,000 garments extracted from wills and inventories which is the basis for our book The Typical Tudor. Our findings make it clear that there were strong conventions in choices of colour for certain garments depending on one's gender and social status. Green was particularly associated with hunting. Henry VIII's grooms of the buck hounds were issued with green cloth for their summer liveries. Care instructions: handwash or dry clean. PLEASE NOTE, this fabric is sold by the half yard (46cm). To order the exact amount required simply select multiple quantities before adding it to your cart. For example, if you need 3 1/2 yards, select 7 in the 'quantity' box and we'll cut the 3 1/2 yards as one continuous length of cloth. We also offer our woollen cloth in numerous additional colours.
