Brushed Cotton Twill - Blackwatch Tartan

A classic check with plenty of depth. This Blackwatch tartan combines very dark green, navy blue and black in a traditional pattern that feels just as at home in everyday dressmaking as it does in autumn and winter projects.

The lightly brushed cotton twill has a softer surface than an unbrushed weave, giving your finished makes a more tactile feel while retaining the character of the twill construction.

We’d make this into a relaxed overshirt worn open over a T-shirt, a pair of tailored trousers or a classic button-up shirt. It would also work well for a simple A-line skirt if you fancy adding a bit of pattern to your everyday wardrobe without going too bold.
