Material
Laxtons, a spinner based in Yorkshire, create fully traceable British wool. They are members of the British Wool Association and the Soil Association, have a Woolmark and are Campaign for Wool supporters.
This yarn is a blend of premium British fleeces finished within a 50 mile radius of the spinner. We use the wool in a factory in the Leicester area meaning the entire process, from fleece to finished jumper, is kept in the UK. End to end British wool.

Care
Washing Instructions
Hand Wash only
When washing by hand, avoid twisting or wringing as this may damage the wool. Do not use fabric conditioner when washing. To remove excess water from the garment we recommend wrapping it in a towel and gently squeezing it before leaving the item to dry. Do not put on a spin cycle. Lay the product out flat to dry, do not hang your wool garments. Allow to dry naturally away from all artificial heat sources.
Care & Cleaning Products
Pilling
Clothing made from natural fibres can occasionally 'pill'. These little balls of fibre or 'pills' are created as the smaller fibres in the twist of yarn naturally shed with wear. This will lessen as you wash and wear your garment. Until then, they can be gently removed with our Pilling Comb.

Write a reviewSo happy to buy a totally British product with little environmental impact( & none from the dying process, as I bought the natural taupe colour.) I have been wearing this cardigan through the winter so now feel I can give a measured opinion. If I am truthful it does bobble a little , but I collect the bits (which will be used in my needle felting craft or as nesting material for the birds, because it is SAFE). I wear this frequently as a very cosy extra layer over all colours of polo-necked jumpers, as I feel the cold and am delighted to have an easy zipper fastening. I have only washed it once by hand as I want to take care of it, but I believe it is possible to machine wash on a programme intended for such garments.It's easy to spot clean and has been rain resistant when I was caught out in drizzle, being natural wool.
A bit tickly around the neck! Starting to pill already but I like it very much!
This is my new favourite cardigan. It is delightfully soft, a neat shape and has a subtle cable design. As it isn’t heavyweight, the cardigan drapes well over the body but still manages to feel snug and warm.
Lovely cardigan in a beautiful rose colour. Soft and cosy but not too heavy. I like the zip feature, gives the cardigan a slightly modern air. Rose colour is amazing over black-perfect for winter days.
I love this cardigan and wear it most of the time in this chilly summer! I love the fact it’s British wool and made in Britain, well done Celtic & Co for supporting our farmers. Love the natural colour too. I have marked it down one star because the zip is a bit tricky and has to be precisely lined up to work. Thank you for a great product.
I enjoy wearing this cardigan, it fits well and it's useful to have a zip instead of buttons. My only complaint is that it sheds a lot of fibre so you have to be careful what you wear it with and keep a lint roller nearby. I'm not a believer in washing jumpers often but perhaps when I do it will sort out the shedding.
As soon as I put this cardigan on, I didn't want to take it off. It is warm, has a lovely feel and weight to it and is a beautiful colour. Sleeves and the general length are a good fit for my longish torso (6 ft/size 14). It does pill a bit at first, but that's to be expected for quality lambswool. It looks great with the striped tee shirt in the photo, which I also bought.
Love this cosy, easy to zip up cardigan. The only reason I haven't given 5 stars for the quality is because of the "pulls". It gets bobbly. I have a little machine which shaves off these little bobbles of wool, but I do need to use it regularly. The idea of fit being entirely British appeals to me and I commend your company for producing this. I like the fact that it is undyed, so I can wear any colour top underneath.I do not find it at all itchy.
Love the cardigan, such a pretty colour. The only thing I was disappointed about was it is lightweight and not warm for cold weather . It will be lovely for the spring / summer , so look forward to wearing it then .
More than I usually spend on a cardigan but it is beautifully soft, fits perfectly and I will wear this for a very long time.
