Yorkshire Tweed Colour Twenty

Name: Yorkshire Tweed Colour Twenty
Brand: Art of the Loom
SKU: YT-Twenty

Yorkshire Tweed Colour Twenty has a quietly complex olive-grey ground, where fine diagonal texture is overlaid with narrow blue windowpane lines. The cool blue accents give the otherwise earthy shade a sharper, more tailored finish.

About this fabric

Catalogued as a fabric from Art of the Loom’s Yorkshire Tweed collection, this colourway is visibly built from a dense, fine diagonal weave. Olive, grey and brown threads blend across the ground, while slim blue lines create a restrained checked structure in both directions. No performance features or further specification data are noted for this colourway.

How to use it

This muted olive-grey shade suits structured upholstery, especially on a reading chair, sofa or footstool where its close weave and blue linework can be seen at arm’s length. Pair it with warm timber, aged leather and small accents in the same cool blue.

Use the olive-grey tweed to bring tailored texture to seating, with the blue check echoed in cushions or painted details.

Paint that goes with it

Two ways to take the room. Both colours are from houses we hold, so a pot can come off the same order as the cloth. Screens shift colour, so treat these as a direction and bring the cloth to the shelf before you buy the paint.
