✔ Great all-rounder ✔ Strong & cushy ✔ Slubby texture ✔ Luxurious yarns ✔ Ethically made in Scotland

This beautiful fabric is woven with natural red peace silk and organic cotton – one of our most luxurious blends. Peace silk gets its name from the production process in which the butterfly flies away from the cocoon before it’s harvested. Characteristic nubs and slubs speckle this yarn to give a unique look and feel to each piece of fabric.

Map of Middle Earth All that is Gold is wonderfully soft, cushy and has a beautiful drape to it. Perfect for carrying children of all ages, it is also suitable for heavier kids and will need just a little bit of breaking in before becoming buttery soft to wrap small babies. The lovely texture of this breathable fabric gives it a good balance of grip and glide making it easy to tie.

Inspired by the classic illustrations of Middle Earth, this stunning pattern was hand drawn by Oscha’s designers and shows the length and breadth of Middle Earth from Mordor to The Lonely Mountain, the Belegaer sea to Forodwaith. The design is picked out on a dark jewel gradation in a beautiful natural golden red silk yarn which is created when silkworms are offered a diet of fig leaves rather than mulberry.

This fabric is also woven with BCI cotton. By using BCI cotton we ensure that our cotton meets the Better Cotton Initiative’s high standards of environmental, economic and social responsibility. Our BCI cotton is also organic, meaning it is grown with care and without chemicals keeping the land, and farmers, healthy.
