Harris Tweed: How sturdy wool woven in the outer Hebrides became the very fabric of Britishness
from Garlic & Pearls
Suzanne gathers a fashionable cast - including Sherlock Holmes, Coco Chanel and Vivienne Westwood – to take Muriel through the warp and weft of Harris tweed's dramatic history. The only fabric still to have its own Act of Parliament, it was a battleground for Gaelic weavers, philanthropic aristocrats and punk fashionistas. Hosted on Acast.
