The hair canvas, or wool canvas, is essential interfacing for the traditional making of jackets and coats. This 220 g/m² canvas is designed to structure the garment without weighing it down, acting as a flexible armature. Its composition of wool, goat hair and viscose gives it hold, suppleness and durability. It is made in Italy to high quality standards.
This hair canvas, also called wool canvas, is interfacing designed for garments requiring a supple structure and lasting hold. It plays a mechanical reinforcement role without weighing down the work, ensuring the permanence of the shape. Made in Italy and sold by the linear metre.
This canvas is the basis of traditional interfacing. It is cut to the shape of the jacket front and all interfacing pieces (chest piece, collar canvas, etc.) are basted to it by hand, creating a coherent structure. For optimal results and to prevent any subsequent deformation, it is strongly recommended to shrink the canvas with steam before working it. Basted to the main fabric with temporary stitches for adjustments.
The interfacing can be used in combination with other canvases such as the chest piece. Assembly seams must be made with catch stitches so as not to mark the outer fabric. For lapel applications, manual under-stitching is recommended.
