Curlew Fabric Design craft unique woven throws from 100% natural, undyed British wool. Each throw is woven in Yorkshire using traditional methods, before being finished in the Scottish borders. This UK provenance means Curlew’s gorgeous throws help support the British textile industry, as well as adding a touch of luxury to any home.
The hardy Swaledale sheep are a staple of the Yorkshire countryside, but founder Louise noticed their fleece was incredibly undervalued as a resource. She therefore set out to create something beautiful from this ‘waste’ product of sheep farming. Wool is a natural insulator, easy to care for, stain resistant, and incredibly durable. It is also a renewable, biodegradable fibre, helping contribute to a more sustainable circular economy.
All the wool fleece used in Curlew throws is completely natural, without any artificial dyes: Louise adds a bespoke blend of Cheviot and Jacob wool to her Swaledale fleece, all from sheep reared in the North of England, to create the beautiful grey shades of her throws.
