Scottish Felted Wool Cardigan, "Scottish Isles"

The simple design of our zip-front sweater hides a 500-year history of wool textiles in Scotland. The unique material--felted lamb's-wool that's softer and cozier than synthetic fleece, but with all the advantages of natural wool--is made by Lochaven in the heart of Scotland's traditional textile district of Stewarton. Our grey-trimmed, felted lamb's-wool sweater is soft and naturally water-resistant, both wind-resistant and breathable. By training young apprentices in knitting, felting, and sewing techniques, they help keep time-honoured textile traditions alive and constantly bring new ideas into the industry. They've even become a respected costume creator for Hollywood films, including all of the Hogwarts school uniforms for the Harry Potter movies.
