Boiled Wool Jeans - Wool Felt Fabric by the Meter

Boiled Wool Fabric Jeans

This boiled wool in a deep jeans blue has that characteristic dense, felted texture you recognise straight away and want to touch. The fabric feels thick and cozy, with a matte appearance and no shine, and drapes in sturdy, structured folds just as you can see in the photos. The felting process shrinks the fibres tightly together, which keeps the edges from fraying and means the fabric won't stretch or distort easily.

What exactly is boiled wool

Boiled wool, also called wool felt or washed wool, is made by deliberately shrinking and felting knitted wool under heat and moisture. This process packs the fibres densely together and gives the fabric its distinctive sturdy, structured drape. The addition of viscose keeps the fabric supple enough to work with despite its weight, while the wool provides warmth and natural elasticity. The edges don't fray easily, making this fabric really pleasant to sew with, even if you're newer to working with heavy wool types. You can feel straight away that this is a fabric built to last for years.

Uses and projects
