Description
The Tweedie throw is a woven herringbone in soft pink and deeper burgundy, finished along its short ends with a brushed yarn fringe. The zigzag herringbone runs the length of the piece in two tones, giving the surface a textured chevron that catches the light differently as it drapes. It measures 130 x 180cm, a generous single-person size that reaches across a sofa seat or lies down the foot of a bed without swamping either. The whole throw is 100% polyester, brushed to raise a gentle nap that makes it feel warmer to the touch than the woven cloth alone would suggest.
This is a throw for the parts of a room where you actually sit. Folded over the arm of a sofa it is there for the evening; laid across a bed it adds a band of colour and a layer you can pull up when the room cools. The pink and burgundy pairing is warm without being loud, so it settles happily against grey, cream or natural upholstery and works alongside earthy and muted tones already in a living room or bedroom. The fringed ends give it a relaxed, informal feel rather than a formal finish.
Being polyester, the cloth is hard-wearing and holds its shape through regular use, and the fibre resists creasing so it looks presentable pulled straight from a cupboard. The brushed nap is what carries the softness, and the fringe is a woven detail rather than a stitched-on trim. Polyester does not absorb moisture the way a natural fibre does, which keeps the throw light and quick to freshen. Style it simply, one throw draped where you want the warmth and the herringbone doing the rest.

Frequently Asked
What is this throw made from?
It is 100% polyester, brushed to raise a soft nap, which makes it hard-wearing and quick to freshen while feeling warmer than the woven cloth alone.
How big is the throw and what will it cover?
It measures 130 x 180cm, enough to lie across a sofa seat or down the foot of a bed for one person without overwhelming the furniture.
Does the polyester crease easily?
Polyester resists creasing well, so the throw tends to look presentable pulled straight from a cupboard and does not need much fussing to sit neatly.
What is the fringe like?
Each short end is finished with a brushed yarn fringe, a woven detail that gives the throw a relaxed, informal look rather than a plain hemmed edge.
What colours does it work with?
The pink and burgundy tones are warm and muted, so they sit comfortably against grey, cream or natural upholstery in a living room or bedroom.
