Description

Herringbone Blend is 190 GSM and 140cm wide, 40% viscose, 40% polyester and 20% linen, woven in a herringbone twill and dyed in two colours: teal and mauve. The viscose gives it drape, the linen a dry, natural texture, and the polyester keeps it stable and easy to care for. The V-shaped weave is the detail, with no print needed.

What to sew with herringbone

  • Tailored and A-line skirts
  • Relaxed jackets and overshirts
  • Structured dresses and pinafores
  • Trousers
  • Cushion covers

Herringbone or linen

For a pure natural fibre, choose Pure Linen in solid colours (150 GSM). For more weight and a fluid drape with a linen slub, choose Lyocell Linen in solid colours (225 GSM). Herringbone Blend sits between the two, with the weave as its texture. It is sold as it is and is not a print base.

Herringbone questions

Does it shrink? The viscose and linen can shrink on the first wash. Pre-wash before you cut.

How do I wash it? Cool, on a gentle cycle, with like colours. Viscose is weakest when wet, so do not wring it, and lay it flat to dry.

Does the weave have a direction? Yes. Cut every piece the same way up so the V runs the same direction across seams.

Can I see the colour first? Yes. Order a 25 x 25cm swatch in any colour from this page. Screens vary, so a swatch is the best way to match a colour.
