A thick and heavy 600gm Traceable British Wool country tweed cloth.

Manufactured in Yorkshire from the Dalesbred breed of sheep as part of our Clapdale Wool project.

The Dalesbred wool in this cloth has gone no further than 50 miles from the sheep it was sheared from, to the yarn spinners and to the mill the cloth was woven in.

This cloth is reasonably coarse, like the hardy Dalesbred breed* it comes from, perfect for suiting and country tweed clothing. 

Cloth is 150cm wide and weighs just over 600g per metre, if you order more than 1 metre we will cut it accordingly so you receive just one piece of fabric. Also available in light grey plaid check.

*Contains a blend of Dalesbred and Cheviot wool. We originally wanted a 100% Dalesbred tweed but we found the fibre of this mountain sheep breed would have been too thick on its own to go through the weaving machines. We therefore had to source a finer wool to blend it with.

NB: this has not been fire tested for upholstery usage

Materials

Clapdale Wool - Woven: The wool in our woven blankets and Clapdale tweed cloth is sourced from our local Dalesbred sheep breed on 3 farms within 10 miles of Glencroft's Yorkshire Dales home, in the dale of 'Clapdale'. Our farmers are paid more for their wool than at auction and receive a share of the profits of every product sold. The wool is then processed, from farm to yarn, within just 50 miles of the sheep it comes from. Certified as Traceable British Wool.
