But before offering you my 23 ideas for sewing bosses for winter, let's make a small material focus on the different types of wool in order to help you choose the right fabric for the right project!

Woolles & woolen sheets: what are we talking about?

Without wanting to play words, I am not an expert in the matter😊.

But, I have been sewing for several years and I order most of my online fabrics.

In fact, I wanted to find out about the different categories of fabric, their properties, their weights ...

This allows me to avoid unpleasant surprises at the reception of a fabric!

It seems important to me to Know how to read the descriptions and fabric product sheets well.

And like you no doubt, in winter, I am looking for the hot wool for a couplette completely adapted to the season!

If you want to deepen your knowledge on the subject, JHe invites you to read the Artesane article which explains very well the different subjects that can be found in the "Wool" section: Wool fabrics and woolens, how to choose them?

What is woolen?

A wool is simply A fabric that contains wool!

The fabric can be 100% wool or in mixed wool.

By extension, we will also call wooling of synthetic fibers tissues which will imitate the characteristics of a wool.

For woolles in 100% wool or mixed wool, on will find different types of wool, depending on the animal where wool comes.

Indeed, when we talk about woolen composition, it is the sheep. This is the most common composition.

But you will also be able to find woolens in mohair (angora goat), cashmere, merinos ...

I invite you to read the Artesane article Of which I told you above if you want to know in more detail the properties of these different types of wool.

What is a woolen sheet?

For simplicity, A woolen sheet is a heavyweight wool: 500gr/ml !

The woolen sheet is therefore ideal for sewing a very hot coat.

Therefore, when you look for a fabric to sew a coat, look at the weight indicated in the description sheet.

Most patterns give you an indication of the weight of the fabric to choose to sew the model in question.

Depending on the coat model you want to sew, you will want more or less flexible wool.

For a steeper and heavy aspect, preferably chosen a woolen pean.

What woolen weight to choose according to your sewing project?

There is no fixed rule or exact science to choose your fabric. We refine our choices over time, over our progress in sewing.

But, for each project, You can refer to the indications provided on the sewing pattern, or ask questions to the creator if you need details.

If you want to sew a hot coat, choose a woolen sheet, a fabric that weighs around 500 grams per ml.

For a jacket, choose a wool that weighs approximately 250 grams per ml. If you want to sew a jacket halfway between the jacket and the coat chosen one weight between 250gr/ml and 500gr/ml.

If you want to sew a jacket or pants or a typical skirt tailor, table rather on a 150gr/ml woolen. It will therefore be a woolen drapery.

23 Ideas for sewing patterns in woolles & woolen sheets:

In this article, I will therefore give you Several inspirations to sew with weight woolens ranging from 250gr/ml to 500gr/ml.

We are going to focus on the heaviest materials to sew cores or capes!
