This cute baby pink 100% wool is finely woven in a herringbone weave that is extraordinarily classy. A soft pink weft and natural warp yarn team up to add an element of subtlety and outstanding quality for this scarcely-seen shade of heritage wool. It's soft, elegant and warm, and has a firm but drapable handle. A stunning fabric that's perfect for anyone who just loves pink!

Sewing room projects that you can get your teeth into with this fine fabric are endless – some ideas might include a neat pencil skirt and matching jacket, a smart dress or cute pinafore (big girls or little girls), tunics, or a lovely, subtle waistcoat. It's perfect for little girls' clothing.

Try teaming this wool with our Caramel Sandy Beige with another wonderful herringbone wool in a chocolatey tone for a delicious Neapolitan ice-cream palette. These wools combined would make delightful cushions, blinds and curtains. Imagine a girl's bedroom furnished with this spectacular colour scheme

Due to naturally occurring wool bi-products in the yarn of Fab Baby Pink, we find when washed on an advised wool cycle this fabric takes a softer and fuller appearance and benefits from the washing process. Please allow a little extra for shrinkage (natural to wool) then you can cut with confidence!

This red and white herringbone woven 100% wool is just stunning. The dazzling red weft sitting over the natural yarn is a clean, crisp and classic combination that will definitely get you noticed.

With a firm but drapable handle, this wool is soft and cosy in texture, but bold and extravagant in style. Striking, too – just like your favourite red lipstick. This herringbone weave is as uplifting as it looks!

Looking to brighten up an uninspired wardrobe? The Rockabilly Red is the ideal fabric to use to whip yourself up a jacket or coat that will go with all of your casual denims and breton striped tops. Other sewing room projects that may take your fancy with this wool are garments such as a neat pencil skirt (with matching snazzy waistcoats and jackets), a smart dress or a cute pinafore; what about a tunic, too? Fancy a contrast? Mix the Rockabilly with our Smokey Charcoal Herringbone for a distinguished dynamite look.

It's ideal for any Christmas-themed projects too, such as stockings, hats or homely decorations. Don't assume that this one is just for the festive period though: it's far too lovely to be stashed away for eleven months of the year. You could also use it to make a throw that would brighten up any room no end.
