Melange wool: blending fibers and customization

About fabrics
Melange yarn is formed during the fiber blending stage. The color is added before spinning.
We work with 100% wool. Dyed wool fibers of various shades are used in production.

How color is created

The fibers are mixed in a specified ratio.
For example, 80% red + 20% black creates a deep wine shade.
Adding 3–10% of another color changes the temperature, depth, and saturation of the final yarn.

After mixing, the fiber is combed and evenly distributed, then spun into yarn. The color is voluminous, with a natural structure.
Each batch can be tailored to a specific task.

Palette and working with shades

We have palettes of basic colors. They can be combined with each other.

Options:
  • selection of a ready-made shade
  • correction of an existing shade
  • development of an individual color with a specified percentage composition
We are moving towards colors found in nature, natural and industrial metallic shades: deep reds, smoky, earthy, complex gray-green, muted warm and cool tones.

Melange allows you to obtain a color that looks uniform from a distance but reveals a heterogeneous texture up close.

What does this give the designer?

Melange yarn in fabric provides:
  • complex color without sharp transitions
  • stable visual texture
  • calm base for cut and shape
  • ability to precisely adjust shade for collection

Color can be matched to reference, brand identity, or existing product line.

Production capabilities

Both single-color and melange fabrics are now available for order.
