Running 16 hours a day, our 14 looms create elaborate, beautiful tweed using a variety of techniques and yarns. A third of each cloth produced at the mill is made from the 100% wool yarn twisted on site, but the other two thirds can be made up of any yarn of our and our partners’ choosing, meaning we can create highly unique, highly complex fabrics and patterns. A standard Linton tweed might comprise eight different types of yarn – whether that’s cashmere, silk, velvet ribbon, eyelash, lurex or anything else. Our couture tweeds can contain up to 300 different yarns. We like to push the limits of what a tweed can be, and this is part of the reason that designer brands like to work with us.
