A Note About Product/fabric Colours

We photograph almost all of our fabrics and products ourselves and take great care to represent their colours as accurately as possible.

However, colours may appear slightly different in real life due to lighting, photography and variations in individual screen and monitor settings. For this reason, we cannot guarantee an exact colour match.

We kindly ask that you keep this in mind before placing your order. If an exact shade is essential to your project, or you're unsure about a colour shown in our photographs, we recommend contacting us before purchasing.

Please note that slight colour variations between our photographs and the actual product are not considered faults and are not, on their own, grounds for a refund.

More About This Fabric

If you love a fabric that looks as cosy as it feels, this beautiful mohair-look coating from Fibre Mood is sure to catch your eye!

Featuring a wonderfully soft, fluffy surface with long, delicate fibres, this fabric has the beautiful appearance of mohair without containing any animal fibres. The warm cream colouring gives it an elegant, understated feel, while the textured finish adds plenty of interest.

Woven from 100% polyester, this substantial 430gsm fabric is ideal for creating warm outerwear with a luxurious, slightly fluffy finish.

Imagine a gorgeous oversized winter coat, a simple collarless jacket or a cosy statement gilet. The beautiful texture really speaks for itself, so even a simple sewing pattern can look rather special.

OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 certified, meaning it has been tested for harmful substances.

Care Instructions

As recommended by Fibre Mood:
Hand wash only in cold or lukewarm water using a gentle detergent.
Do not bleach.
Do not tumble dry.
Do not iron.
Do not dry clean.
Dry naturally, away from direct heat.
Our Tip: We recommend testing a small sample before washing your finished garment. Avoid rubbing, wringing or twisting the fabric, as this may affect the delicate fluffy texture. Gently reshape while damp and allow to dry naturally.

This Fabric Is Perfect For...

Winter coats, oversized coats, tailored jackets, cosy gilets, structured capes, coatigans and warm outerwear.

Sewing Notes

Needle: A universal needle, size 90/14 or 100/16, is a good starting point for this heavyweight fabric. Test on a scrap first.

Cutting: Use sharp dressmaking scissors or a rotary cutter. Cutting in a single layer may help keep the fluffy surface in place.

Nap: Check the direction of the pile before cutting and lay out all pattern pieces in the same direction for a consistent finish.

Stitching: A slightly longer stitch length of approximately 3mm may work well with the substantial fabric.

Seam Finishing: Grade bulky seam allowances to reduce thickness. Consider lining jackets and coats for a beautifully neat interior.

Pressing: Do not iron, as heat and pressure may flatten or damage the fluffy surface. Gently finger-press seams instead.

Interfacing: If your pattern requires interfacing, consider a sew-in option rather than fusible interfacing.

Top Tip: Keep a soft brush handy to gently release any fibres caught in your seams after stitching. Always test on a scrap first.
