Colour:
Shades: Lakeland Moor is a plaid wool tweed that celebrates the drama and harmony of Britain’s wild landscapes. Designed with two distinct yet connected colour stories, the fabric is a testament to versatility and storytelling in design. One half captures the serene woodlands and lakes, while the other evokes the romantic heather moors at dusk. A unifying overcheck of cloud white, subtle country green, and sky blue ties the composition together, creating a plaid that’s rich in heritage yet boldly modern.
Side A – Redolent of scenic lakeland woods and waters featuring bands of colours such as woodland green, peaty brown and sky blue
Side B – Akin to heather-filled moorlands at dusk, featuring bands of colours such as pink–mauve, dried grasses beige, red peat, brown and sky blue, which echoes from side A for continuity
Throughout both sides, there are overchecks of cloud white, subtle country green and sky blue which visually link the two palettes.
Design: Plaid -This design embodies the enduring appeal of woven checks. Plaid is not a fad, and tartans are timeless, a testament to tradition continually reinterpreted for the modern age. The plaid reads as a landscape in textile form, with the overcheck acting as pathways between two worlds.
Properties:
Texture: This all wool Yorkshire Heritage Tweed features a classic wool outerwear texture that balances ruggedness with comfort. Typically fibrous, yet cosy and protective against the elements, naturally insulating, it traps air between fibres, providing warmth without being stifling. Breathable and resistant to wind, though not fully windproof.
Handle: The fabric holds its structure well and is stable along both the width and length, making it ideal for tailored garments like blazers or sport coats, and so much more. These traditional wool tweeds are perfect for soft furnishing and craft purposes.
Drape: Lakeland Moor will drape reassuringly when used at length. It will form neat pleats with structure and softer flares and flounces where required. A natural bias ease provides the opportunity for manipulating the fabric with steam for tailoring purposes.
Garment Suggestions:
Tweeds are always a firm favourite for country outerwear and will work beautifully for many designs and styles, from super smart three-piece suits to more casual bomber jackets. Tweed is a very versatile fabric!
