✔ Great all-rounder ✔ Soft & mouldable ✔ Luxurious yarns ✔ Ethically made in Scotland

This beautiful fabric is woven on a striking organic cotton dark jewel grad which runs from midnight blue through burgundy and dark green to black. The bold, Art Deco style Oakenshield pattern, inspired by The Lord of the Rings, is picked out in dark grey Bourette silk. Characteristic nubs and slubs speckle this yarn to give a lovely unique look to each piece of fabric.

This luxurious blend makes a strong and supportive fabric with a beautiful drape. Soft and mouldable, Oakenshield Aulë is suitable for beginners as it is easy to wrap with. It is a great all-rounder suitable for use with small babies and also heavier children when using multi-layer carries. The lovely texture of this breathable fabric gives it a good balance of grip and glide making it easy to tie.

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.
