'Into The Woods' is gorgeous small-scale pinwale corduroy design featuring foliage and adorable fauna. See if you can spot the foxes, racoons, birds and hedgehogs :-) This corduroy is soft, fine, and has amazing versatility. It is soft against the skin and would be gorgeous as a shirt, dress, blouse, and it's also a great weight for shackets, jackets, skirts, dresses, pants, overalls, and pinafores. You'll probably want to line Blazers and jackets so it won't 'grip' the layers underneath. It will be great for holding the shape of statement sleeves (like the Balloon Sleeve Dress by The Assembly Line). The background is Brown, and features lighter browns, greens, white and pinks. Hokkoh have stated this is a 150gsm, but to me it feels a little bit more than this.

Cloth Care:
While cotton can generally be machine washed and tumble dried without any problem, but like any fabric it can look tired and shorten the life of the garment if it isn't looked after. Wash colours separately. The finished garment will last longer and look better if it is shaken out when wet, and placed on a hanger to dry. Tumble drying will shorten the life of the garment. Do Not Tumble Dry. To prevent fading, wash inside out and dry in the shade. Cotton needs a warm to hot iron. Conduct a spot test. Cotton is dry cleanable.
