Yorkshire Herringbone - Ice Crystals

Ice Crystals  is a gorgeous all wool tweed. Manufactured in Huddersfield undergoing the same processes as our exclusive Heart of Huddersfield range. This fabric is not one of Fabworks' own exclusive designs, but easily could be.

Woven from a superb combination of yarns, this sublime fabric has cool and fresh clean tones. Icy aqua and the natural multi tones of natures best wool are showcased in finely blended yarns, then woven into the neat chevrons of the herringbone weave. This fresh pastel palette echoes the glistening ice crystals of frozen rivers and waterfalls, catching the light as the sun rises on crisp winter mornings.

If this fabric seems familiar that's because it is very similar to our HOH exclusive Breath of Fresh Air one of our best selling in the range. The difference is that this beauty is a smaller scale herringbone and has an even fresher almost minty hue.
