    Culture tweedtweedTweed is a rough, thick cloth made of wool, with threads of several colours woven together (= passed under and over each other) to make various patterns. The most common patterns are checks or ‘ herringbone ’, which has lines arranged like the bones of a fish. Many tweeds are in shades of grey or brown, and have a few brighter coloured threads woven in. Famous tweeds include Donegal cloth from Ireland and Harris tweed.Tweed is warm and hard-wearing and is used for outdoor clothes, such as jackets and coats, and for women's skirts. Men's flat caps are also made of tweed. In Britain tweed clothes were generally been worn by older people, but it has now become fashionable for all age groups. Americans think of tweed as something that never goes in or out of fashion. In America tweed is fairly casual, so a tweed jacket could be worn to work by a professor, but probably not by a lawyer.
