About Us
We are Michele & Gina, the faces behind our brand Herringbone & Plaid. Having been friends for nearly 20 years, we both enjoy many of the same hobbies and interests, as well as sharing a mutual love for walking our beloved dogs Noodle, Barley & Bolly. With Gina’s expert accounting skills and Michele’s passion for selling - together we are the perfect match!
We are both instinctively drawn towards the natural fibres of wool, cashmere, mohair and cotton, and have created our own collection of ethically sourced and sustainably made products. Our only condition ~ that they be made from natural fibres and pass the "face test"!
We have slowly expanded our business to include a complementary range of beautiful products; from practical XL cotton and wool waffle throws to rainbow coloured Shetland and Merino wool throws sourced in the UK; from our deliciously soft alpaca throws to smaller accessories like scarves, beanie hats, bed socks and wrist warmers. We’ve even embarked on our own designs - a luxurious range of pure cashmere wraps embellished with crystals, designed by us and made by one of our lovely family run suppliers in Nepal. We have now expanded the number of designs and colour ways and have recently produced a more summery version in vibrant colours with double asymmetric stripes. This year we've added a jacquard knit, pure cashmere scarf in eleven colour ways with contrasting ribbing - a must for everyone's stylish winter wardrobe.
