Fabric - Merino wool, Black and White random stripe

Fabric - Merino wool, Black and White random stripe

NZ$0.55

110cm width. Price is per centimeter.

100% New Zealand Merino wool, both warp and weft.

We wanted to experiment with random black and white stripes. The warp was made up to be half black and half white threads which were then tied onto the loom in a random order. The idea was to weave with a single colour weft to create a stripe effect, without being hard stripes. The result is an almost like the random ‘bits’ (01010') of a computer programming language!

A perfect fabric for making staple piece to pair with anything in your wardrobe.

Suitable for outer wear garments.
