This beautiful organic combed cotton and Tencel shawl is velvety soft and drapey in hand.
Woven on a deep forest green organic cotton backdrop. The bustling Shire pattern is picked out in white Tencel. It features the iconic circular doorway, smoke rising from a warm hearth and well-tended gardens teeming with life and activity: all of which tells the whimsical tale of the Hobbit home. Our homely scene is set between beautiful flowering borders, evoking the pages of a classic storybook. The Westfarthing is the location of the village of Hobbition, the home of the beloved characters, Bilbo Baggins and Frodo Baggins.
Although this fabric has a fairly high unwashed gsm it feels much lighter and thinner in hand thanks to the unique properties of Tencel. Tencel is fine but dense yarn, softer and stronger than most cottons. It's made from wood pulp using a closed loop system, requiring much less water and land, thus making it a great eco-friendly alternative.
