Description
Loden is wool cloth that is fulled after weaving. The fibres interlock, and the surface becomes closed and soft. The result is warm, windproof and stays clean at raw edges, so facings and hems can be left out. The width is 140 cm, the weight 380 g/m², and the material is 100 % wool.
Mustard is a warm yellow with an earthy undertone. It brings colour into winter and pairs well with grey, navy and natural shades. At 380 g/m² the wool is sturdy and holds its shape, ideal for coats, jackets and anything that should keep its form. According to the care label, the fabric is neither washed nor ironed. Airing and brushing keep wool fresh for a long time.
What Boiled Wool in Mustard is suitable for
- Slippers and hats, because the firm felt keeps its shape.
- Bags and cases, as the dense fabric is stable and does not fray.
- Boiled wool jackets and overalls for children, because wool warms and lets moisture escape.

Frequently asked questions
How do I care for the fabric?
According to the care label: do not wash, do not bleach and do not tumble dry. Wool largely cleans itself through airing. Brush out marks when dry or dab them gently with a damp cloth; for a thorough clean, take it to a professional cleaner.
Is boiled wool waterproof?
No. The dense wool sheds light rain and snow for a while and stays warm even when damp, but it does not replace a rain jacket. Let wet garments dry hanging in the air, not on a radiator.
Does it suit children's clothes?
Yes, boiled wool jackets, overalls, hats and slippers are a classic. Wool warms, balances moisture and keeps out the wind. Since the fabric is not washed, a lining or replaceable cuffs are worthwhile on children's garments.
How do I cut the fabric?
With sharp scissors or a rotary cutter on a mat. Because boiled wool does not fray, the cut edge is also the finished edge. That is why it pays to cut cleanly and in one go.
