Autumn/Winter 2018 20 - Melin Tregwynt
Welcome   A tradition still in the making….

Croeso    Melin Tregwynt is a small whitewashed woollen
          mill hidden away in a remote wooded valley on
          the Pembrokeshire coast.

          There has been a mill on this site since the 17th
          Century, when local farmers would bring their
          fleeces to be spun into yarn and woven into
          sturdy Welsh wool blankets.

          Today we find our yarns from further afield but
          the legacy of Welsh double cloth weaving is still
          handed down from generation to generation and
          weaving continues in the same mill building.

          The history of weaving is recorded here in an
          unbroken line right back to 1841, and the mill has
          now been owned by the same family since 1912.
          Over 30 people work here creating fabrics which
          are useful, beautiful to look at and just a little bit
          special

          Traddodiad sy’n parhau ….

          Melin fechan, wyngalchog yw Melin Tregwynt ac
          mae’n swatio mewn cwm coediog, anghysbell ar
          arfordir Penfro.

          Bu melin ar y safle hwn ers yr 17eg Ganrif, a bryd
          hynny byddai ffermwyr lleol yn dod â’u cnuau i’w
          nyddu yn edafedd a’u gwehyddu yn garthenni o
          wlân Cymreig.

          Heddiw, mae ein hedafedd yn teithio ymhellach
          i’n cyrraedd, ond caiff y traddodiad Cymreig o
          wehyddu brethyn dwbl ei drosglwyddo o
          genhedlaeth i genhedlaeth o hyd, ac mae’r
          gwehyddu’n parhau yn yr un felin.

          Yma, cofnodir hanes gwehyddu mewn llinell
          ddi-dor sy’n ymestyn yn ôl i 1841, ac mae’r felin
          wedi bod yn yr un teulu ers 1912. Mae dros 30 o
          bobl yn gweithio yma, i greu ffabrigau sy’n
          ddefnyddiol, yn hardd ac ychydig bach yn
          arbennig

Cambrian Mountains Wool
Gwlan Mynydd Cambrian
We are delighted to be involved with the Cambrian Mountains Wool CIC to
develop premium wool from Welsh Mule sheep found on specific upland
farms into a fine worsted weaving yarn. This is a fantastic opportunity to
return to the roots of Welsh weaving; combining locally sourced yarn with
beautiful design to create a uniquely Welsh product for our customers.

The fabrics shown here are suitable for both Fashion, Footwear, and Contract
Interiors, and all the fabrics are available from stock.

Fabric/metre (160cm wide)      £138

Diamond Tweed                                 Log Stripe

Mocha          Ecru                           Mocha

We will be adding to the range, but, due to the specialist nature of the
sourcing, the process from fibre to fabric takes almost 9 months so please
keep watching this space!
