Hidden Gems Herringbone is a gorgeous all wool tweed. Manufactured in Huddersfield undergoing the same processes as our exclusive Heart of Huddersfield range

Woven from a delightful blend of multi tonal yarns, look closely to reveal the rich natural gems. A beautiful multi tonal warp yarn with moss and lichen greens forms the base and a dusty grey brown yarn forms the weft, but blended into this yarn are a multitude of the most beautiful colours of nature.

There are soft heathers, pinks purples, russets, turquoise blues and soft duck egg tones; creating a subtle contrast between the chevrons of the herringbone weave. The combination of the two yarns is subtle but stunning! It's like strolling through a midsummer meadow when all the long grasses have turned into a palette of complimentary hues.

Ideal for those who love blue and heather coloured palettes but need a neutral fabric with an all-over grey-brown tone that goes with everything.

Hidden Gems is a closely woven woollen fabric. It has a versatile medium weight and a traditional rustic wool feel that boasts a stable handle that drapes reassuringly with the promise of cosy warmth. It’s the perfect fabric for a plethora of sewing room projects and it will always do as it’s told. Wool of this kind is easy to sew and will stand the test of time well.

Dressmakers, Reenactors, Costumiers, Interior Designers, Craftspeople and all lovers of textiles will find a plethora of uses for this first-rate herringbone, taking you through A/W and perfectly into spring.

Dressmakers: Hidden Gems is perfect for fashioning classic outerwear and hard-wearing separates. Start with simple and stylish pencil skirts, A-line skirts and waistcoats, choose a complementary quality lining and you’ll have garments that will soon become perennial favourites. Shift dresses and pinafore dresses are super comfy and make classic key pieces. When your sewing skills are more established, try classic jackets, coats and capes. Add multi toned, horn type buttons to your makes - picking out the jewel tones for an individual style.

Reenactors and Costumiers: The natural tones in this fabric are ideal for a range of historical garments from capes and tunics to trousers and over dresses.

Interior Designers: use this hard-wearing wool herringbone to create a range of coordinating soft furnishings such as cushions, throws, blinds and curtains for a truly harmonious styling in the home.

Craftspeople: appliquéd cushions, bag making, door stops, draught excluders, hats, caps, neck warmers, mittens & wrist-warmers, throws & blankets and much more. Whatever this fabric inspires you to do!

Serviceable in the best way!

I needed a skirt to go with a fairisle jumper I’m knitting and this all purpose herringbone does the job. It’s not exciting but will go with many things. Excellent quality wool and nice to work with.

Made in Yorkshire mills by Yorkshire folk! This is one of Fabworks’ famous Yorkshire-made pure wool fabrics, constructed using surplus yarns that have been recycled & repurposed to create limited runs of exquisite quality classic tweed styles. Locally manufactured within an 8-mile radius of Fabworks, UK-spun wool yarns sourced from across the country are put into weave at some of world’s most renowned tweed mills, located in Huddersfield (West Yorkshire, England, UK). The heritage and quality of these items represents classic British manufacturing, in the heart of The Heavy Woollen District of West Yorkshire, renowned for its expertise in wool textiles manufacture.

These are all bespoke one-off pieces that are only available at Fabworks, conjuring heritage, sentiment and locale into the curation of classy colour palettes with a colourful and eco-friendly sustainable twist.
