Greenfinchsix sumptuous yarns makeup this gorgeous birdseye weave. Pale-marled grey, charcoal with undertones of brown, and a natural white sit together to form the warp. The warp is like the fabrics base layer or its foundation (hover over the photographs for a close-up of this colour detailing).

The weft yarns are the bespoke colours that bring the fabric to life. The weft ofGreenfinchfeatures three delicious multi-tonal yarns; one of delightful multi tonal green (the colour of pretty little Greenfinch birds feathers), alongside the charcoal and marled grey (which also appear in the warp). Combining these yarns creates mesmerising depth within this complex and unique weave.

Wool weaving lesson #1: every fabric must have a warp (lengthways yarn) and a weft (edge-edge/width yarn). The warp is always one continuous run of yarns, as its on the length. The warp is the same throughout all the Birdseye Spin-Offs.

The weft is what determines this fabrics colour detailing, bringing the fabric to life. Combining these yarns (3 warp, 3 weft) creates mesmerising depth within this complex and unique birdseye weave. Pale marled grey, charcoal and natural white yarns sit together to form the warp, whereas the weft combination has been tweaked slightly at each run interval with one different yarn, effectively producing an accent colour and giving the fabric its own individuality and spin-off, in a collection of very similar fabrics. The quality is all in the detail.
