What's traditional?

This 100% merino wool blanketing is made by Hainsworth who have been producing woollen fabrics in Yorkshire for over 225 years. In Tudor England, wool was an important commodity that signified power and influence, so much so that Queen Elizabeth I insisted nobility took their oaths of loyalty kneeling on a woollen sack. Today, the Woolsack remains at the heart of Britain’s democracy and is now the seat of the Lord Speaker in the House of Lords. The Woolsack is covered in Hainsworth cloth.

The heart detail is in our own Twice Framboise print linen which is inspired by vintage French patterns. It is woven in the last linen mill in Scotland and printed in a traditional textile mill in Cumbria.
