About Handwoven Tweed
Handwoven tweed is the foundation of our family business – in the 19th century John Magee, a wholesale cloth merchant, would visit monthly tweed markets across South-West Donegal, trading directly with the weavers. At that time weaving was a skill many farmers and fishermen had honed, the cloth they wove on large wooden looms was hardwearing and tough. We are still designing and producing a unique handwoven fabric to this day. We retain similar, timeless designs and use the finest of natural fibre yarns. Designs are sent to the weavers who work in their homes, the raw fabric is then sent back to the mill for finishing. The raw, oily fabric is washed in the peaty waters of the River Eske, which flows by the mill, resulting in a beautifully soft finish.
