Italian textured wool fleece knit - orchid graphic

From Italy, this wonderful textured wool fleece is just right for a fun and fabulous jacket, cape, topper coat, structured cardigan, etc. The dimensional graphic pattern (44" repeat) is set on a slight angle and features raised and recessed areas and a brushed texture. The design is knitted in (not a print), seen as a flat weave on the reverse. Colors are black, gray, orchid and winter white (PANTONE 17-4402, 18-3224, etc.). The fabric has a knit construction but it's quite stable with about 20% stretch in the width, and it has neat decorative selvages that can be used at hems or edges. Medium weight with a good amount of body in the drape, and a cozy, fleecy texture. Dry cleaning recommended, or treat as you would any fine sweater knit (hand wash, lay flat to dry).
