- Nugget Gold Bamboo Cotton Fleece - This fleece is about as cozy as it comes! The cousin of our favorite bamboo cotton french terry, this fabric trades the looped back for a fluffy, brushed face that is dreamily soft. Plus, the color, a golden yellow, is warm and sunshiney. All the better to add a kick of brightness to cold winter days!
- Blackberry Polar Fleece - This dark purple fleece is soft and breathable, with a shearling-like fuzziness on the right side. The moderate drape will give structure to this pullover and the plush feel will keep you snuggly and warm. Designed to resist pilling, it will stay lofty through wear, which is ideal because you won't want to take this fabric off!
- Ivory Cable Fable Embossed Knit - Embossed on one side with a knitted cable pattern, this fabric mimics the looks of handknitting without the effort. Sturdy and plush, the fabric feels like a sweatshirt knit and will be so cozy as a loungewear layer or light jacket. The ivory color is versatile and chic, and you can play with the pattern to create your own unique look!
