Finishing

For the samples I have cut off along the way, I have been washing them in hot, soapy water & leaving them to dry gently on the radiator. Some I may have agitated a little too much & the fibres have felted more than I would have liked, however for the most part, it has left my samples feeling softer & more structured.


Because of the sportswear element included within the Dashing Tweeds brief, I decided to use some really thin, 1 ply wools to give the fabric a more breathable quality. These samples have turned out to be some of my favourites once washed.
