Diagonal twill

Diagonal twill in 2/2 twill weave

Diagonal twill belongs to the twill weaves. Its typical feature is the diagonal rib created by the weave structure. In a 2/2 twill weave, the binding points are evenly offset, creating a stable and characteristic surface.

This structure makes diagonal twill especially interesting for anyone who is not looking for a completely smooth fabric, but for a visible yet not overly busy weave. Especially with merino wool, the diagonal weave is beautifully visible and gives the fabric depth and character.

100% merino wool, woven in Germany

The specification 100% merino wool is important because the term wool fabric is often used very generally in everyday language. Depending on the supplier, wool can also refer to blends, recycled wool or reclaimed wool. In this category, however, the focus is on diagonal twill made from merino wool.

The fact that the fabric is woven in Germany is also a valuable indication of quality and origin. For customers who consciously look for natural materials, clear material information and high-quality workmanship, this is an important point of orientation.

What is merino wool diagonal twill suitable for?

Depending on fabric weight and handle, diagonal twill made from merino wool is suitable for modern tailoring as well as for historical garments, reenactment and LARP. Possible uses include coats, jackets, cloaks, dresses, skirts, tunics, uniform parts, accessories or textile equipment.

Before buying, it is worth looking at the weight, width, colour, handle and care instructions of the respective item. Fabrics suitable for softly draping clothing differ from those intended for robust outerwear or projects with more body.
