Weighty wool blanket with a wide geometric pattern, a collaboration between TOAST and The Bristol Weaving Mill. The design was developed in the Bristol studio using hand-woven swatches, before being machine-woven by the company’s partner mill in Scotland. A mix of British heritage wool and New Zealand yarns form a double-faced structure, brushed for softness and finished with short fringing.

Block printing is a centuries-old craft. Though it might be the simplest and slowest of all textile printing methods, it yields some of the most beautiful results. The technique demands precision and patience: each block is skilfully hand carved then carefully, laboriously, lined up by eye upon the fabric. It is these human processes that result, inevitably, in slight irregularities. A machine-printed fabric might, by contrast, be perfectly executed, yet it is somehow always a little flat, lacking the inherent liveliness of a hand printed piece.
