Modern Plaid Throw Blanket

Established in 1837, the historic Moon mill in Guiseley, Yorkshire stands as one of Great Britain’s last remaining vertical woollen mills. With over 180 years of proud British manufacturing and design heritage, our commitment to quality craftsmanship remains unwavering.

The term ‘vertical’ harks back to the Victorian era, where mills spanned multiple stories, each dedicated to a specific stage of production. Today, it signifies our unique approach—managing every aspect from raw wool to finished product. This includes Dyeing, Blending, Carding, Spinning, Warping, Weaving, and Finishing, ensuring meticulous control and authenticity.

Our collections strike a balance between innovative design and traditional craft, positioning us at the forefront of commercial trends without compromising on quality. We embody the essence of ‘Made in Great Britain’, a legacy that resonates through our commitment to excellence.

From supplying fabric to Leeds in the 1800s to collaborating with modern fashion houses, our journey reflects a rich tapestry of British heritage and expertise spanning generations. Each product embodies this legacy, crafted with meticulous attention to detail and skill.

Our in-house design team draws inspiration from our pattern archives, some dating back to the early 1900s, ensuring our designs blend timeless elegance with contemporary appeal. We pride ourselves on sourcing the finest raw materials—starting with quality British wool, sourced from trusted farms where diet influences wool quality.

At our Dye House, wool undergoes a precise dyeing process using closely guarded combinations of dye, pressure, temperature, and time. This meticulous approach allows us to produce over 500 unique shades, maintaining consistency through detailed shade standards and recipes.

The journey continues through Scouring, Milling, and Finishing, where our signature soft handle is achieved using Yorkshire spring water from an artesian well within the Moon mill. This final touch enhances the luxurious feel of our fabrics, reflecting our commitment to British heritage, design, and quality.

Crafted using supremely soft Merino Lambswool in subtle shades of camel, slate grey, and off-white, our collection of throws, cushions, and fashion accessories blends Scandinavian and British design elements. This versatile range complements a variety of interior styles, perfect as a sofa throw, rug, or decorative blanket, measuring 55"x73".
