A selection of polyester and wool boucle fabric

Boucle fabric is a type of woven or knitted fabric that features loops or curls on the surface. The loops give the fabric a textured appearance, making it a popular choice for clothing, upholstery, and other decorative items. Boucle fabric can be made from a variety of fibres, but polyester and wool are two of the most common.

Polyester boucle fabric is a synthetic material that is known for its durability and resistance to wrinkles. It is often used in clothing such as skirts, dresses, and jackets, as well as in home decor items like throw pillows and curtains. It is also often blended with other fibres to create a more versatile fabric. Polyester boucle fabric is often less expensive than natural fibres like wool.

Wool boucle fabric, on the other hand, is made from the hair of sheep and is known for its softness and warmth. It is often used in colder weather clothing such as coats, sweaters, and scarves. Wool boucle fabric is also used in home decor items such as blankets and rugs. It is a more expensive option than polyester boucle fabric, but it is also more durable and has better insulating properties.

Boucle fabric suitable for different types of projects

Both polyester and wool boucle fabrics have their own unique properties and advantages, making them suitable for different types of projects. Polyester boucle fabric is a more budget-friendly option that is easy to care for and is suitable for everyday wear. Wool boucle fabric, on the other hand, is a more luxurious and durable option that is perfect for cold weather clothing and home decor items.

When it comes to the weaving process, boucle fabrics are woven or knitted with a combination of two types of yarns: the boucle yarn and the background yarn. The boucle yarn forms the loops on the surface of the fabric, while the background yarn forms the base of the fabric. The boucle yarn is often made from a different fibre than the background yarn, which can affect the final appearance and properties of the boucle fabric.

In the case of polyester boucle fabric, the boucle yarn is made from polyester fibres, while the background yarn may also be made from polyester or a different synthetic fibre like nylon. For wool boucle fabric, the boucle yarn is made from wool fibres, while the background yarn may be made from wool or a different natural fibre like cotton.

Boucle fabric is a versatile and stylish choice for a wide range of projects. Whether you are looking for a budget-friendly option for everyday wear or a luxurious and durable option for cold weather clothing and home decor, there is a boucle fabric that will meet your needs. The combination of polyester and wool fibres in boucle fabrics can offer unique properties and advantages, making it a popular choice among designers and textile manufacturers.
