Boucle is a looped yarn, and the loops give the surface its knobbled irregularity. This one is polypropylene, but the hand is closer to undyed wool, which is what the three neutral shades are reaching for.
The specification is the reason it sits in an outdoor collection: 7 out of 8 for light fastness, 4 out of 5 to sea water and to chlorinated water, 40,000 Martindale rubs, at 870 g. A boucle that can stay out on a terrace all summer is not a common thing. 140 cm, made in Italy.
