The Herdwick sheep who roam the Lake District fells are the inspiration for our exclusive range of bags, accessories, cushions & caps. Utilising the natural shades of their fleece we weave pure Herdwick wool worsted tweed.
Designed, hand cut & sewn our products are a reflection of the farming heritage of Cumbria.
Our tweeds are 100% Herdwick & alter with each weaving.
Herdwick: Limited by Nature.
Each item we make has a dedicated page with the tweed options available.
If you are in the Lake District we have opened a shop in central Grasmere.
