Hand knitted sweater in apple green British Shetland and undyed cream ecru British Bluefaced Leicester aran lambswool, cable raglan long sleeves. Slow textiles.

Hand knitted sweater made entirely by hand. Apple green Shetland and undyed ecru cream Bluefaced Leicester aran lambswool. British wool breeds.

Deep grown on roll collar, long raglan sleeves with cable detail. Double rib cuffs and hems. The same front and back, so can be worn either way.

I am knitting this style of sweater in other beautiful British breed lambswools, dyed or undyed as the sheep intended.

Being hand knitted with needles, artisan handmade, there are slubs and irregularities which add to the unique quality. Some pilling is to be expected as this is pure lambswool.

Measurements :

Bust/chest : 38/40 inches unstretched
Length back neckline to hem : 23 inches

Bluefaced Leicester and Shetland lambswool in cream ecru and apple green, hand knitted in my studio overlooking the wilds of Dartmoor.

Slow contemporary artisan textiles. Biodegradable, circular, sustainable with no waste.

Inspired by endless horizons across the wild moor, river and the open sea.... handspun, handknitted and handwoven pieces evoke the changing colours and moods of ancient Dartmoor.

Made by hand and designed to last.

Washing instructions :

Hand wash separately in hand hot water and gentle soap or non rinse wool wash, without agitation to avoid shrinkage and felting. Leave to soak then gently squeeze and lift out. Rinse gently in similar temperature hand hot water to avoid shocking the wool, from hot to cold. Roll in a towel to remove excess water and dry flat or hang over a rail away from direct heat.
