Product Details
We're proud to say that from farm to factory our beautiful Gansey jumper is produced entirely in Britain. A take on the traditional fisherman’s Gansey jumper, we’ve been inspired by stitch patterns used historically in Cornish fishing villages. Details include a boxy, drop shoulder body shape with T sleeves and a ribbed and cast off rolled collar. Panelled stitch patterns run across the top half of the jumper, plus it is ‘knitted in the round’, meaning it is seamless, just as the traditional fisherman’s jumpers were made. Made using undyed wool, the natural fibres keep you warm in cold weather, but are breathable too.

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.
