Ok so this is a very beautiful linen striped in a vibrant earthy palette of turmeric, teal, tomato. It has a handwoven feel, there is a sheen, it is opaque with a summer jacket weight. 85% linen and 15% nylon, the warp is clear nylon that holds onto the linen giving it shape. It comes from a mill that creates very special textiles. It find of flows like a heavy organza but a little softer, suitable for wraps and ponchos, blouses, make a big skirt, a top. Lots' of options. Only one side is usable so if you made a wrap I would face with a silk. The dark teal bands are 6 1/2 and the striped bands are 15" alternating.

Italian Midnight Double Weave Stretch Suiting
$38.00
Beautiful Italian soft stretch wool - this is special - one side is a fine crepe weave - the other is twill. Good body for soft jackets and wrap skirts, think Donna Karan Vogue patterns. Soft draping with body, will look great on jacket shoulders without pads, a double weave but you cannot really pull apart I would bind the edges. Looks great with the turmeric rayon binding. The lighter photo is just so you can see the weave the color is midnight.
