Extra Large . Hand knitted sweater, two yarns held double, and made entirely by hand with knitting needles. Very local dyed and undyed Shetland lambswool from five farms in the PL and TQ postcodes in Devon and Cornwall. Expertly woollen spun by The Natural Fibre Company in Launceston, only a few miles away from me. Undyed pure sheep colour. Breed specific British Shetland wool.
Deep grown on roll collar, long raglan sleeves with cable detail. Double rib cuffs and hems and side slits. The same front and back, so can be worn either way.
I am knitting this cable raglan style of sweater in other beautiful British breed specific lambswools, dyed or undyed in natural sheep colours.
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 : Extra Large - Unisex
Chest : 52 inches unstretched
Length back neckline to hem : 28/29 inches.
Very local Shetland lambswool held double, hand knitted in my studio overlooking the wilds of high Dartmoor.
Slow artisan textiles. Biodegradable, circular, sustainable and 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.
