Colour:

Featuring weft yarns of mid purple, lilac, bright purple & light rust, woven with a warp of magenta & pebble grey.

Take yourself off to our traditional allotment plot in late summer and early autumn where you will find yourself in awe of the profusion of colour-blocked perfection, created by a display of prize-winning Dahlias.

The hot magenta pink and coral orange hues of Dahlia Garden are the epitome of sun-soaked perfection, jostling noisily alongside their colour-clashing lilac and purple hued neighbours in a riotous floral party.

Grounded with a pebble-grey pathway that weaves its way through the garden, reflecting the sun’s light in this perfect patchwork block check, a recurrent theme that appears throughout the HoH23 collection.

This superb mediumweight wool is perfect for a whole host of both dressmaking and furnishing projects.

Heart of Huddersfield 2023:

Introducing The Crosshatch Chronicles

6 gorgeous 100% wool tweeds Best Block Checks, together form The Crosshatch Chronicles, the latest addition to Fabworks’ very own Heart of Huddersfield range. Hot off the looms and manufactured by Fabworks, from sourcing yarn through to weaving and finishing, this bespoke beauty has been made in Yorkshire mills by Yorkshire folk!

Designed to sit alongside existing collections, allowing for the curation of a sustainable capsule wardrobe where legacy Heart of Huddersfield pieces can mix & match and interchange perfectly with The Crosshatch Chronicles, refreshing the look as the seasons change, with bespoke woollen pieces that take us from late summer through to early spring.

A grounding pebble grey yarn features throughout The Crosshatch Chronicles collection adding subtle tonality, a recurrent theme that appears throughout The Crosshatch Chronicles collection. Woven in a traditional twill weave using a selection of sustainably sourced deadstock yarns of 16 skein.

Block checks are great for adding more colour to stand-alone pieces. A carefully curated pattern repeat that is bold enough to make a statement but not too much to cause a problem. Use colour-rich designs to create straight lines and unorthodox uniform styles, or use on the bias to create interesting details and slimming illusions.
