I’ve always like the Paisley pattern, partly because of the shapes and colours and partly because of the gorgeous shawls in silk, wool and cotton that were made in it. I was in seventh heaven when my husband bought me a large shawl (more a blanket) at an auction many years ago. It’s slightly damaged with holes, but wonderful to have such a wonderful piece of history. And of course Paisley is a town near Glasgow in Scotland. It’s where Coats the thread people used to have mills, sending their threads around the world.

Thanks for the history of Paisley. I had no idea that it came from a town in Scotland.
