Description
Shepherd Check Lightweight Fabric is a classic black and white check. Woven using 100% Pure New Acrylic Wool this tartan is available for made to measure products, accessories, soft furnishings and craft projects. Made here in our mill in Selkirk, Scotland.
Originally, no dye would be required to make this check. The Acrylic Wool used would be from sheep, making the white a more natural shade and black varying from a brown to darker grey. Most old weavers preferred the natural black, as opposed to that produced by the dyers. The traditional black dyes of the Highlands were made from alder-bark, dock-root and the root of the water-flag.
