It’s not often we post pictures of ourselves, but this shows just how useful our new colour block cashmere scarves are now the evenings are getting chillier. On a lovely evening at Henley Festival this beautiful wrap kept me warm all evening! Come and find us tomorrow at Newbury RDA Autumn Fair or next week at the Early Early Christmas Fair and many more during the autumn. We also sell online with an array of colour ways. #cashmerewrap #wrapupwarm #charityfairs #spoilyourself #luxury #fabulousfashion #giftforlife #ridingforthedisabled #eecfair #soldierscharity @newburyRDA @eecfair

Now our gorgeous puppies have arrived, we’ll be getting out the dog blankets to celebrate 🐶. They make practical purchases for the home and car, but also make fun presents for friends and relatives - who doesn’t love a present for the dog?? And if you’re going out for supper, why not take a dog blanket instead of a bottle of wine or box of chocks - what an original way of saying “thank you for having me”! Our blankets are made from cotton, machine washable, gorgeously soft and come in two sizes and about fifteen funky designs, such as woof woof in different languages and VID (very important dog!). Small is 70 x 90cm @£20 Large is 100 x 140cm @£35 #dogblanket #muddydog #muddywalks #machinewashable #cottonblanket #dogblankets #pamperedpooch #pawsome #treatyourdog #smartandstylish #protectyourfurniture #warmandcosy #giftideas #presentsformen #giftforgirls #dogbreeds #sprocker #sprockerspaniel #woofwoof #mansbestfriend #veryimportantdog #giftsfordogs #treatafriend #naturalyarn #premiumquality #throwsandblankets #blanketsandthrows #sofathrow #bedthrow

Did you know that yesterday was National Ampersand Day? When we chose our name “Herringbone & Plaid”, we thought an ampersand was cool. Little did we know that we would constantly have typos in our literature, and we certainly didn’t think about the consequences of email addresses and website domain names!! Duhhhh! But actually I still think an ampersand is cool! DID YOU KNOW..... * The ampersand used to be the last letter of the alphabet? * It is a ligature of “e” & “t”? That’s “et” in Latin, meaning “and”? * The word “ampersand” is a slurring of “and, per se, and” run together over time? * The plus sign is actually an ampersand? #ampersandday #nationalday #herringboneandplaid #throwsandblankets #blanketsandthrows

It’s definitely chilly enough to start thinking about blankets! We have a wide selection of wool and cotton blankets for babies, children and dogs that are wonderful to use all year round - whatever the weather ! They’re beautifully soft, made from natural fibres and machine washable - how practical is that? And they make fantastic presents too! #purenewwool #woolblanket #babyblanket #duskypink #babyblue #ocean #newbaby #babypresent #newmother #pramblanket #cotblanket #naturalyarn #naturalfibre #madeintheuk #madeinbritain #britishmade #dogblanket #muddydog #muddywalks #machinewashable #cottonblanket #dogblankets #pamperedpooch #pawsome #treatyourdog #sprockerspaniel #woofwoof #mansbestfriend #veryimportantdog #giftsfordogs

When we started designing our colour block cashmere wraps, we had a blank canvas. But it’s amazing how our choice of colours have mimicked the natural world around us. So often we inadvertently pull colour combinations from our surroundings - I guess nature really does know best! That’s another reason why we only stock natural fibres such as wool, cashmere, cotton, alpaca and mohair. For their amazing qualities of softness, thermo-regulation, durability and sustainability. #naturalfibres #natureknowsbest #mohair #shetlandwool #merinolambswool #purecashmere #alpaca #cotton #chevronthrow #herringbonethrow #cashmerewrap #colourblockwrap #throwsandblankets #blanketsandthrows #madeinbritain #madeintheuk #britishmade #sofathrow #bedthrow #warmandcosy #toastywarm #outdoorliving #socialising outdoors #homedecor #interiors #interiordesign

I love this palette of soft grey with a shot of bright yellow. No coincidence that its the Pantone colour combination of the year for 2021 - Ultimate Gray and Illuminating. Apparently these two together express a message of positivity supported by fortitude! We’ve got a wonderful arrray of colour @herringboneandplaid, and we pride ourselves on only stocking natural fibres such as wool, cashmere, cotton, alpaca and mohair. #pantonecolours #mohair #shetlandwool #merinolambswool #purecashmere #alpaca #cotton #chevronthrow #herringbonethrow #sparklycashmere #sparkles #cashmerewrap #colourblockwrap #throwsandblankets #blanketsandthrows #madeinbritain #madeintheuk #britishmade #sofathrow #bedthrow #warmandcosy #toastywarm #outdoorliving #socialising outdoors #homedecor #interiors #interiordesign

Who do you support? So proud of all those Olympians! Especially with the reduced training they’ve had to endure this last year. @teamgb @tokyo2020 #teamgb #olympics2021 #tokyo2020 #olympians #bepatriotic #unionjack #unionflag #jack #presentsformen #homedecor #merinolambswool #throwsandblankets #blanketsandthrows #bedthrow #sofathrow

A lovely customer bought a sage green mohair throw yesterday, on the hottest day of the year! Which just goes to show that it’s NEVER too hot to buy throws!!
