Mohair Fabric Helmbold – 12mm Sparse – Porridge

This 12mm sparse mohair fabric, called Porridge, from Helmbold is wonderful fabric for making teddy bears and other little characters.  The backing is pale beige colour and the pile is a 12mm, sparse, porridge / oatmeal colour.  The contrast between the pile and backing looks fabulous when trimming back around the muzzle.

This top quality German mohair fabric is particularly good for making smaller bears. as it has a sparse and short pile.

This mohair fabric is available in 1/16m, 1/8m, 1/4m and 1/2m pieces (the width of the roll is approximately 140cm including the selvedges and, therefore:-

• 1/16th is approx 25cm deep x 35cm wide,
• 1/8th is approx 50cm deep x 35cm wide
• 1/4m is approx 50cm deep x 70cm wide
• 1/2m is approx 100cm deep x 70cm wide

Please note, although we try our very best, it is very difficult to photograph an exact colour match of the mohair fabric (but we do sell 8cm x 8cm swatches that may help you decide!).
