Originally designed by Nanna Ditzel in 1965, Hallingdal 65 is an exceptionally durable upholstery fabric that features a harmonious blend of wool and viscose, both dyed before spinning to accentuate their texture. The wool contributes superior durability and flexibility, while the viscose enhances the colour with brilliance and depth.
The wool-viscose blend gives it such a rich, heathered look up close, and it feels sturdy without being scratchy. I recovered an old armchair and it's holding up beautifully to daily use.
I’ve been using this upholstery fabric for a reupholstery project, and the wool-viscose blend holds up beautifully—it doesn't pill or fade even after daily use. The subtle color depth from the pre-dyed fibers adds a warmth that’s really hard to find in modern textiles.
The texture is surprisingly soft for such a tough fabric, and the wool-viscose blend gives it a subtle sheen that catches the light beautifully. Really pleased with how it feels on our sofa after a month of daily use.
