Yew Trees & Moonbeams Plaid

Plaids are not just a fad and Tartan is timeless!

Deep and dark tones are accentuated by rich pops of red and flashes of white in this classic tartan style fabric. The background of spruce green reminds us of dark and ancient Yew trees bedecked with precious red berries, darkest black like the night sky is lifted by the overcheck of red berries and a flash of white like moonbeams completes the ensemble!

Yew Trees & Moonbeams Tartanis woven in a classic twill weave with fine polyester and viscose yarns. The blended yarns produce a suiting weight fabric that is soft and drapey to handle (feels like fine, soft lambswool) yet is stable strong and hardwearing.

Tartan style fabrics have a timeless style and suiting weight fabrics are definitely not just for suits, and tartan, plaids and checks are classics. Create iconic British designer styles with icons such as Viv Westwood and Alexander McQueen as your inspiration or choose lifelong country classic styles. Perfect for adding a pop of traditional colour and style to your wardrobe whether it’s the festive season, Hogmanay, Burns Night or not.
