Fleece to Fabric a Harris Tweed Hebrides Journey of Community, Provenance and Transparency

Community, Provenance and Transparency, brought to life through the launch of a film that transports consumers direct to the farm, wool sourcing, croft weaving and finishing processes, and then see first-hand each individual piece being quality assurance checked and approved by the Harris Tweed Authority.
A collaboration between Harris Tweed Hebrides, Walker Slater British Wool and the Campaign for Wool for wool month aims to highlight the natural fibre and the craftsmanship in the collection of Harris Tweed garments.
Community - a close interdependence exists between people, place and product on The Outer Hebrides, less than 160 are permitted to call themselves a Harris Tweed weaver.
Transparency - the wool has been sourced from over one thousand British farms.
Provenance - making a sustainable cloth in harmony with the environment for over 200 years. A fabric that will last for a lifetime - an industry that will have true longevity.

Wow. Such a short, but interesting video. I wish it was longer. Nothing beats hand-made goods, based on traditions.❤
