Wool has long been synonymous with warmth and comfort, often associated with a bulky hand feel and heavier weight. Traditionally, woollen scarves, shawls, mufflers, and fabrics are favoured for their thick hand feel and textured appearance, making them ideal for cold weather. However, wool’s versatility extends beyond just winter wear.
The Woolmark Company, a leading authority in the wool industry, highlights that wool is a year-round fabric. Wool’s unique ability to absorb water molecules allows it to pull moisture away from the skin to the fabric’s surface, where it evaporates. This moisture management capability means wool can wick sweat away from the wearer and even move water vapour before it turns into sweat, keeping the wearer comfortable in all conditions.
At Woolgold, we have embraced this versatility, developing exceptionally soft and thin wool fabrics ideal for scarves, shawls, and other accessories. Our innovative wool fabrics, weighing just 40 grammes per square metre (GSM), offer a lightweight option that retains the luxurious qualities of wool. Scarves made from these fabrics, digitally printed in any design, weigh approximately 70 grammes—light enough to be easily carried in a pocket or a purse.
We use high-quality, fine wool yarns to ensure a super-soft touch, and our fabrics are available in various weaves, including plain, twill, herringbone, satin, and diamond. These weaves add texture and dimension to the fabrics, enhancing their appeal and versatility.
For those interested in experiencing our innovative wool fabrics, we invite you to contact Woolgold for fabric swatches and explore the endless possibilities of lightweight wool. hashtag#Wool hashtag#Fabric, hashtag#Innovation
