Introduction:

Rhubarb Triangles - Donegal Herringbone Tweed this quintessential classic Donegal Tweed is but one of a small collection of new Yorkshire Tweed fabrics - created here in the epicentre of woollen fabric production - West Yorkshire. Expertly woven from the finest all-wool yarns and finished to produce a premium quality, soft but traditional wool hand.

Our new Donegal Herringbone Tweeds are a timeless range of six gorgeous, 100% wool fabrics, new for 2022. They boast the same subtle warp yarn which is created by blending predominantly light grey fibres with multi tones of watery blue, green, pink, heather and pops of earthy red as subtle as a delicately painted watercolour - inspired by the Yorkshire countryside which has historically provided the ideal conditions for woollen fabric production.

Rhubarb Triangles this is a heritage design, (named because the rows of chevrons look like herrings' bones) and natural yarn combination has a classic & smart look and sturdy feel. Smart and confident as the millstone buildings of mill towns, this fabric will create garments sure to stand the test of time.

Colour:

Rhubarb Triangles is woven with the signature grey/watercolour melange, warp yarn alongside a contrasting weft of juicy rhubarb pink/red flecked with the signature 'neps'  the colour of candied orange peel and ginger. The combinations of yarns produce a stylish contrast defining this timeless design which is a mouthwatering combination, evoking comforting thoughts of baking and jam-making in cosy Yorkshire kitchens. Soft and warming as all those sweet treats from mother's kitchen.

Rhubarb Triangles has a sturdy & stable handle with a traditional yet soft country woollen feel. Wool fabrics will naturally regulate to the temperature of the wearer and protect from the outside elements. Naturally water-repellent, this fabric will also keep you dry as well as warm.

Really lovely fabric

The photo on the website is very clear and close to the actual item. The fabric is lovely and soft and really pretty colour. Have made a lined skirt with it and it sewed beautifully.

Lovely herringbone tweed

This is a spectacularly good example of just how great tweed can be, and especially with the herringbone pattern and in this colour it looks and feels great.
