A customer favourite, this Superwash Cashwool and organic combed cotton blend creates a luxurious and durable fabric that is cosy and comfortable for newborns and big kids alike.
Superwash Cashwool is a smooth lightweight wool yarn which is soft and mouldable and offers cush, drape and wonderful temperature-regulating properties.
The Art Deco style Oakenshield pattern is woven in alternating ecru cotton with air blue Cashwool and ecru cotton with darker blue Cashwool, creating a stunning contrast with the background, a gradation of blues that moves seamlessly from the darkest midnight through cobalt and into a rich blue danube.
By using BCI cotton we ensure that our cotton meets the Better Cotton Initiative’s high standards of environmental, economic and social responsibility.
This item is part of the Constellation Lovers - To the moon and back Semi Custom preorder and the yarns and pattern were carefully selected by the group.

This pattern celebrates the Oakenshield lineage of Dwarf-Kings who ruled over the mines and wealth of The Lonely Mountain. You can find the names of the 3 prominent Kings inscribed in runes on the design - Thrór, Thráin and Thorin as well as their title 'King Under the Mountain' along the borders.
The Hobbit tells the story of Thorin Oakenshield's return to claim the Mountain hoard from the dragon, Smaug, who ousted his grandfather, Thrór from The Lonely Mountain and this design is an ode to that quest and the Dwarves' determination.
The design nods to the motifs and hard lines of Art Deco pieces, creating a series of decorative shields which feature straight-edged interlocking patterns reminiscent of Celtic knots but with a more industrial aesthetic, reflecting the nature of the Dwarves of Middle-earth. Hidden in the artwork are elements indicating the wealth they uncovered and the objects they skillfully crafted.
