Compressed Wool Jersey

What is Compressed Wool Jersey?

Compressed wool jersey is a type of jersey fabric made from high-quality worsted yarn. It is created by putting the knit fabric repeatedly through a milling process, which causes the wool fibers to become deeply and tightly intertwined. Compared to a standard jersey, the entire fabric is tightly compressed, giving it a compact feel with less stretch and greater stability. This allows it to be used much like a woven fabric, even with raw-edge finishes. It is lighter and warmer than it appears, making it an excellent choice for a wide range of items, including casual jackets, coats, and pullovers.
