CROCHET PERFORMANCE PRINTED FABRIC
£2.00
Crafted with performance in mind, Crochet Performance Fabric offers both the elegance of Dufy’s artistic legacy and the strength required for high-traffic spaces. An archival design by Raoul Dufy, reimagined in collaboration with the Christopher Farr Cloth design studio, this fabric is printed in the UK and showcases a small-scale, two-tone abstract pattern inspired by the rhythmic repetition of a crochet stitch, which gives it its name. The result is a refined and contemporary textile with a linear, textured look.
Perfect for outdoor and high-traffic areas, Crochet Performance is ideal for use as upholstery, curtains, blinds, and bespoke interior projects, bringing sophistication and lasting style to a wide range of applications. Whether outfitting a busy living room, a high-end commercial space, or custom-made furniture, Crochet Performance seamlessly combines enduring design with high performance.
Its versatile tonal contrast and understated scale make it suitable for both large expanses and small applications, adding just the right amount of texture and interest to any space. Ideal for those seeking both style and durability, this fabric offers an elegant solution for a modern, minimalist aesthetic or layered, bold interior schemes.
As part of the exclusive Raoul Dufy fabric collection, Crochet Performance honours the fusion of art and interior design, making it a beautiful, functional textile for both interior and exterior designs. Embrace the balance of heritage, craftsmanship, and innovation in every piece.
THE DESIGNER Christopher Farr Cloth presents a carefully curated collection of textile designs from the legendary French artist Raoul Dufy (1905-1953). Known for his vibrant oil paintings, watercolours, and bold textile designs, Dufy’s artistic legacy continues to inspire modern interior design. This collection showcases bold floral designs, small geometric patterns, and animal-inspired motifs in bright, fresh colours, bringing timeless sophistication and elegance to contemporary interiors.
Dufy, a contemporary of Picasso and Braque, revolutionised the textile industry in the early 20th century by designing fabrics for couturier Poiret and the textile company Bianchini-Férier. His use of vibrant colours and rich textures redefined fabric design, making it a core part of the fashion and interior worlds. Christopher Farr Cloth has worked with these designs to recreate the artist’s original prints, blending artistic history with modern luxury textiles.
The Raoul Dufy fabric collection exemplifies French design excellence, ideal for a range of applications including upholstery, curtains, blinds, and accessories. With exceptional craftsmanship, these high-quality printed fabrics capture the joyful, vivid nature of Dufy's work, ensuring a unique, bold look for your interior projects.

Other | Please allow for 5% shrinkage when calculating required quantities. All outdoor fabrics are water resistant due to a performance seal that is applied during production. This seal helps normal spills to bead up and not soak into the fabric. However, fabrics are not water repellent nor waterproof. Our fabrics are perfectly suited for outdoor use, but in a heavy downpour the water will penetrate the fabric and the cushion inside. For this reason, we recommend storing furniture indoors when not in use to extend the life of the fabric. |
