Wool Linen Patch Pocket Cardigan

All our knitwear is made from natural fibres, including Scottish wool, fine merino, and recycled Italian cashmere. Wool is warm, sustainable, and renewable – sheep regrow their fleece each year, and any wool waste biodegrades naturally. We harness its strength and intrinsic warmth to create insulating pieces, and its absorbent nature allows it to be easily dyed in a wide spectrum of colours.

• Wool rarely needs washing due to its breathable, odour-resistant, and naturally antibacterial fibres.
• Airing or freezing often works well. Wash by hand, as needed, in cool water with a wool detergent.
• Avoid soaking, stretching, rubbing, or using fabric softener, as it may cause pilling.
• Rinse well and gently squeeze out water, but avoid wringing.
• Lay on a towel, roll to remove excess water, and dry flat.
• To deter moths, fold in a drawer and use cedar balls, lavender, or conkers, airing garments occasionally.
• Hangers can stretch and misshape wool clothing.
• Pills can be removed with a knitwear comb.

Derived from the durable flax plant, linen is one of the strongest natural fibres. It is naturally antibacterial and biodegradable, valued for its strength, breathability, and relaxed drape. First developed in Ancient Egypt, most modern flax is grown in northern France and Belgium.

• Machine wash linen at 30°C or on a cool setting; delicate pieces may require handwashing.
• Always turn garments inside out and avoid overfilling the machine so the fibre can absorb water properly.
• Avoid tumble drying. Line dry on a hanger, reshape, and iron inside out while damp to reduce creasing.
• Use a moderate heat and avoid pressing firmly on seams, as high heat or pressure can damage fibres.
