Re: Harris Tweed
I bought a nice Harris Tweed sports coat quite a few years ago, looks great and the material wears well, although it was made in China the workmanship of the article is great and the tweed is certified as the genuine article.
There was a good article on Harris Tweed in the Scots Magazine quite a while back showing a lady who manufactures all types of items out of recycled Harris Tweed, I cannot locate the article now but it may be the one at the following link.
