Soft, versatile and easy to wear, this 100% cotton lightweight flannel fabric features a timeless plaid in warm beige, grey and ivory. Its soft neutral palette gives the classic flannel look a refined feel that works beautifully for both casual garments and cozy wardrobe staples.

At 150 gsm / 4.42 oz, this is a lightweight flannel that offers the comfort and cozy character of flannel without the bulk of a heavier fabric. Its lighter weight makes it particularly well suited to button-up shirts, shirt dresses, relaxed tops, pajamas and other garments designed for comfortable layering.

The yarn-dyed plaid construction is created by weaving coloured yarns together rather than printing the plaid onto the surface of the finished fabric. The beige, grey and ivory tones are therefore integrated directly into the woven construction of the fabric.

Made from 100% cotton, this flannel is breathable and comfortable against the skin. The neutral plaid is easy to coordinate with an everyday wardrobe, while the lightweight construction makes it a versatile choice for fall and winter sewing as well as transitional garments.
