The Mill is thrilled to present: SHOT, a truly unique product offering

“SHOT” is the description of a fabric surface effect created by weaving two different coloured yarns together, one colour in the opposite direction to the other, showing a striking contrast between the two. The Mill’s Chartreuse Yellow base weave shines through each and every one of our exciting 30 colourways, giving a special glow similar to a traditional Silk Taffeta.

Stay on trend with this timeless fabric collection: CLASSICS!

“Whether referring to a work of art, an item of clothing, a book or a movie, a “Classic” remains timeless and never ages, being reborn over and over to a newer and younger audience and at the same time never losing favour with the old!”
