What is flannel?

Flannel

Having started with the scarves in flannel gray, navy and brown-beige , I wanted to continue my momentum by working on the flannel with more unusual colors including the copper and purple , but also to add unexpected details, in pink, fuchsia and ochre .

I adore .

I always wanted to work with warm colors while adding details to the lighter colors .

In winter , I have trouble wear light colors like the pink, yellow, green, orange, fushia . These are for me summer colors .

Let them be pastels , cold or neutral , the colors influence our emotions .

I finally decided to take up flannel .

As for proposing some flannel scarf , let's also play on the summer colors in them associating with those of winter .

These details can also be combined with a wearing socks , cufflinks , or even a suit jacket of the same color , to recall the scarf tones .

Flannel is very famous nowadays for its soft touch.

Of Welsh origin , flannel simply means wool .

Flannel can sometimes be seen as having a rustic appearance , but also excessively luxurious.

THE purists love flannel because it is in all possible variations but also with colors and some patterns Also numerous and varied .

The vast majority is composed of a mixture of 85% wool and 15% cashmere , the others 100% wool ; which gives it this On the soft and cozy side , flannel has many advantages when worn.

For me, the most important thing about flannel is that it is almost wrinkle-free .

Many experiences have been carried out and it is surely the fabric the most resistant that we have created.

Even rolled up around the neck all day, its shape will remain intact in the during or the folding in the evening .

Waterproof thanks to its pressed fabric , it is not not cold to the touch and quite the contrary because when worn, it provides heat.

A little anecdote about flannel

During the First World War, our French soldiers were dressed with flannel shirts for the cover from the freezing cold .

But not only that!

They also had flannel belts .

As such, for a long time now, the flannel is recognized for its warming virtues .

Flannel remains, however, a very light fabric .

And that's what makes it so main force .

That's why she assembles perfectly with your winter coats .

Flannel work

I have rolled the edges of the scarves so that the fabric holds perfectly and prevents fraying .

By adding these precious details, namely the cross finish , our famous daisy as well as the two transvestites, I make sure the scarf fits perfectly.

So today, I no longer have this problem!

At the same time wrinkle-free and well-sewn , flannel is no longer at risk.

So I managed to combine aesthetics with comfort in a scarf.

I'll let you discover them ...
