A gorgeous and luxurious medium-weight viscose blend fabric that is soft, stretches and has some drape.
Twill fabrics have a pattern of diagonal parallel ribs that are created by passing the weft thread over one or more warp threads and then under two or more warp threads. Each row is slightly off-set from the previous row to create the parallel pattern. Weaving a fabric in this way generally means that twill fabrics drape well.
Viscose fabrics are created from wood pulp and are therefore natural fibres. This means that garments made from viscose will keep you cool on hot days and warm on cooler days.
This fabric is slightly heavier than standard viscose and suitable for a wide range of dressmaking projects that require some drape such as dresses, skirts, trousers, dungarees and jumpsuits.
