The mill has been working since 1947. But this remote Scottish weaver still casts a spell today
Bute Fabrics has been weaving wool, alpaca, linen and silk into cloth inside a former orphanage and convent on the Isle of Bute since 1947. The mill, which stands in the Firth of Clyde, 33 miles west of Glasgow, has in its time woven for Dior, Balenciaga, five-star hotels and globally known taste-makers including Tom Dixon and Drake’s of London.
“When the big retailers such as Marks & Spencer and Laura Ashley started to do off-shore sourcing in the ’80s and early ’90s, that was the death of a lot of textile companies in the UK,” Woodhouse says.
