About this print
Bordeaux melange merino wool jersey is rib-knit jersey in 100% merino wool, approx. 165 cm wide.
Specifications:
– Material: 100% merino wool (see exact composition in the specification table)
– Width: 165 cm
– Stretch: 4-way
– Construction: Rib-knit jersey (1×1 rib)
– Colour: Bordeaux melange
The melange effect adds a calm depth to the colour, enhancing simple cuts without looking busy. The 1×1 rib makes the quality suitable for tops, rib tops, bodycon dresses and lightweight layering styles where you want a material that drapes nicely and still keeps its fit.
The professional takeaway here is the colour expression. Melange can vary if the fibre mix and dyeing change. That matters for your range: Bordeaux melange is often chosen for runs where you want a more textured look than a fully solid colour quality. Many buyers ask: Can melange create visible shifts? Always plan to use the same batch for one production, and order a little extra if the colour needs to match exactly.
Fabric shops typically buy bordeaux as a season-independent colour that works for both autumn and all-year basics. Smaller producers use it for smaller drops where you want to differentiate without moving into prints. As a wholesale fabric supplier, we deliver rolls ready for cutting and reordering, so you can keep product flow stable.
Wash on a wool programme at 30°C with wool detergent. Avoid tumble drying. Dry flat and shape gently.
