Beschreibung
Colour: 

This bespoke block check Donegal Herringbone comes to you in all your favourite oceanic turquoise blue-green tones, so if you find it difficult to choose a favourite from our luxury Donegal Tweeds in captivating sea inspired tones then why not have them all in Treasured Oceans?

A palette of royal, peacock, teal and turquoise blue-green yarns are tempered with glacial blue-green tones and set the warp and weft (woven in repeating 10 x 9 blocks) for this first-rate, Irish Donegal Tweed Herringbone. This palette of dopamine inducing sea-inspired hues evokes thoughts of tropical coves or scuba diving in the varied depths of our treasured oceans.

The use of differing light and dark tones creates a subtle contrast and showcases the chevrons of Herringbone weave. The addition of joyful multi-coloured Donegal flecks- like magical sea creatures displaying multicoloured pops of light in their incredible bioluminescence, unifies and further embellishes this exquisite fabric. Our love of these mesmerising blue-green hues never wanes and we know you will be lost in the beauty of Treasured Oceans.

Properties:

This superb range of the finest Irish woven lambswool
herringbones has the most tactile quality! The softness and cosy brushed hand
of these fabrics is an absolute delight for all fabric lovers.

They may be soft and luxurious but they have all the
admirable qualities of hard-wearing Irish tweed we would expect. Wool is
naturally temperature-regulating, showerproof and soil-resistant. These
medium-weight, Irish Lambswool Donegal Tweeds are stable width and lengthwise
and have a soft bias ease, adding to the reassuring and malleable drape
quality. They are also closely woven and lightly milled so less prone to
fraying than many tweeds.

Truly first-class cloth to work with, these impeccable
fabrics will serve you well for years to come, and a light brushing and airing
in the fresh outdoors should be all they need.

Garment Suggestions:

Herringbone Tweeds are always a firm favourite for
country outerwear, and will work beautifully for jackets, overcoats and pea
coats. Alternatively, go for something less formal and try poncho, wrap and
cape styles.

A matching waistcoat and skirt will become priceless
additions to your wardrobe. Great to throw on with your favourite
roll-neck top or Liberty shirt (or even a crisp, clean Italian poplin), with
chunky tights and winter boots.

Complete the ensemble with your own bespoke, matching
accessories! Hats, caps, ear warmers, scarves and bags to give just a few
ideas...

Other Uses:

Interior projects around the home will be an indulgent touch and stunning additional pops of colour where needed. Use for comforting throws and cushions - an eye-catching, vivid and modern twist to a traditional combination.

Commission Made:

This fabric is from the Fabworks x Avoca collaboration for A/W 2024, that features a collection of commission-made luxury wool-based fabrics.

Using only surplus yarns leftover from Avoca's previous weaving schedules, Fabworks has designed & commissioned these fabrics, giving you the opportunity to create exquisite luxury tweed makes that feature iconic Donegal flecks. The Donegal flecks featured throughout this collection of fabrics varies from a light sprinkling to a generous helping, depending on the original yarn specification. Donegal flecks may not be visible immediately, but look closely for the intricate detailing.

Fabworks x Avoca

Fabworks’ association with Avoca began in 2011, when Fabworks Mill Shop was only a fraction of what it is today, and way before Fabworks Online existed. We were approached by Avoca with an offer to buy their surplus fabric from the previous seasons' collections. What an opportunity! A deal was struck, and what arrived at our warehouse a few weeks later was the most amazing selection of Irish-made pure wool fabrics, plus all the accessorising elements within the Avoca ladieswear collection (elaborate trimmings, gorgeous embroidered silks, lightweight satins, Liberty jerseys) and the cherry on top of the cake – Irish-made Donegal Tweed!

The working relationship between Fabworks and Avoca blossomed over the next few years and allowed Fabworks to develop its focus on high end ladies’ dressmaking fabrics and away from the lower end of the textiles market.

Four years and several thousand metres of fabric later, Fabworks took a bigger step than ever before, and collaborated with Avoca to commission its own range of Irish-made pure wool fabrics which marked the launch of Fabworks Online, November 16th 2015. This was a defining moment for Fabworks, being the very first collection of fabrics that we commissioned ourselves. With a range of herringbones in iconic Avoca colour-rich palettes, this was Fabworks’ first taste of proper manufacturing in the 21st century.
