          "Harris Tweed" production Process applied to Chesterfield furniture (text production source wikipedia)



          The creation of Harris Tweed begins with fleeces of pure virgin wools that are shaved from Cheviot and Scottish Blackface sheep. Although most wool is mainly obtained on the British mainland, the island communities still gather in the early summer to collect and shear the local sheep to add to the mix. The two types of wool are mixrd together to obtain the benefits of their unique qualities and characteristics

          Once shaved, the wool is sanded before it is delivered in large bales to the factories of the most important tweed producers where it is then dyed in a wide range of colors to mix.

          The freshly dyed colored and white wool are weighed in predetermined proportions and then thoroughly mixed by hand to give precise recipes to obtain the correct shade. It is then carded between mechanical, toothed rollers that thoroughly tease and blend the fibers before it is separated into a fragile, embryonic yarn. This soft yarn then gets a twist as it is spun to give maximum weaving strength. The spun yarn is wound on bobbins to supply the ingredients of weft (left-to-right threads) and warp (vertical threads) that are delivered to the weavers.

          This extremely important process sees thousands of warp threads gathered in long heels in a very specific order and wrapped on large beams ready to be delivered, along with yarn for the weft, to the weavers.

          All Harris Tweed hand-woven on a pedal loom, each weaver at home has a 'double-width' Bonas-Griffith rapier loom in the case of a weaver's mill, or normally an older 'single width' Hattersley loom at independent weavers. The weaver will 'connect' the warp threads of each end of thread through the eyes of their loom levers in a specific order then begins to weave, resolving any errors or breaks that occur before completion.

          The tweed then returns to the mill in its 'greasy state' and passes here the hands of darners who correct any errors.

          Once finished, the canvas is ready. Dirt, oil and other impurities are removed by washing and whipping in soda and soapy water before it is dried, steamed, pressed and trimmed.

          The final process is the investigation by the independent Harris Tweed Authority, which visits the factories on a weekly basis, before their Orb Mark trademark is applied to the fabric as a seal of authenticity.
