Italian herringbone tweed doubleknit - black/white
contents: wool blend
width: 47"
origin: Italy
This beauty was made in Italy, a yarn-dyed doubleknit, similar in weight and drape to ponte, opaque with about 15% mechanical stretch in both directions. The herringbone design has a very rich look, with a smooth surface texture looks like a felted boucle', and on the back is a simple tweed that can be used beautifully as contrast. The colors are black and silvery white, a sophisticated color combination that is perfect for an upscale fitted dress, knit jacket or suit, pencil skirt, tunic, pullover, etc. While I don't know the exact fiber percentages, it does have a high wool content. Dry clean or hand wash and lay flat to dry.
