At Hinterveld in Uitenhage exquisite mohair blanks and other products are created for both the local as well as the international market. Throughout the whole process I have shown this week the mohair is white, but it can be dyed at three different stages; after combing, after spinning or after weaving. Some of the blankets are specially produced for international agents and retailers with their own brand on it while others are produced under the Hinterveld name. All luxurious and timeless. The products are all available in the factory shop and looking at the prices I imagine you can pick them up for much much cheaper here than at those international boutiques.
What a glorious and luxurious blanket this will be! Would love to own one!
ReplyDeleteLove those colors. I almost bought a mohair wrap when near the Drakensburg. Loved how soft and colorful it was but didn't want to fill my suitcase.
