Colour:
Spiced Wineboasts a closely packed warp of light-marled grey yarn, the colour of a mizzled rain-filled sky, and sets the base of this first-rate Yorkshire Tweed Donegal. A rich wine red yarn with tiny Donegal flecks.
Featuring pops of orange, golden yellow and black is woven throughout the weft creating a fabulous contrast to the mizzled rain-grey accentuating the traditional nailhead design and producing an overall seasonally warming hue; akin to richly spiced wine seasoned with black cloves, cinnamon, orange and lemon. The perfect tonic for brightening the dreary days of A/W.
Properties:
This heritage weave, named because of the small rectangular picks – groups of twinned yarns, looks like old-fashioned nail heads. The traditional weave and superb yarn combination boasts an honest, hardwearing look, yet a soft and warming hand – like the Yorkshire men and women who have been making these woollen textiles for generations.
Garment Suggestions:
Donegal 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 Italian poplin, with chunky tights and winter boots.
Complete the ensemble with your own bespoke, matching accessories! Hats, caps, ear warmers, scarves and bags are just a few ideas.
