Wool Week 2014: best interiors
Celebrate Wool Week with stylish textured pieces that will cosy-up your home
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.From blankets and throws to cushion covers and lampshades, wool is used to striking effect by lots of homeware designers. UK Wool Week (6-12 October) is the time for this natural material to shine and remind us of its versatility across interiors and fashion.
Here, we select woolly pieces for the home. Some - like M&S's lambswool cushion - feature in the Campaign for Wool's 'Wool Collection Interiors' exhibition at Southwark Cathedral, others are simply innovative, stand-out pieces that have caught our eye this autumn.

Verdict:
If you've fallen for wool and aren't on a tight budget, sofa.com's pieces in one of their wool fabrics will make the material the star of the show in your space. The Zeppelin here was designed for the Campaign for Wool's exhibition, but there are lots of other coverings and furniture designs to choose from. Opt for a chair if you can't stretch to a sofa. For just a fun touch of wool, try LifeCovers Harris Tweed coasters. Or if you're after an eye-catching but not-too-big piece, our pick is the bright geometric cushion by Fine Cell Work for Pentreath and Hall.
