Medley cloth

The process comprises the mixing of wool of two or several colors in different proportions before spinning. It was practiced in the 17th century in England. Since the wool was imported from Spain, Medleys were also called Spanish cloth. The known production cities were Westbury, Wiltshire and Trowbridge.^{[1][2][3][4][5]}
