Wool Fleck

Developed on the Tick Studio loom, Wool Fleck modernizes the plain weave structure, transforming it with vivid color combinations. Using pre- and post-consumer recycled wool, acrylic and polyester, each colorway begins its second life when discarded garments and postindustrial textile waste are shredded back into fiber according to content. Multiple colors of the resulting fiber are mixed into a precise formula and spun together to create complex melange yarns. Dimensional color interactions emerge in the weaving process resulting in a soft, woolen textile suitable for contract and hospitality interiors that minimizes environmental impact. Wool Fleck's 21 colorways coordinate directly with Melange Check, the large scale plaid, which derived from the same handwoven weave blanket as Wool Fleck.
