Classic nautical Guernsey style made using the wool from sheep in Yorkshire.
100% British wool from two breeds of sheep in the Yorkshire Dales.
100% UK manufactured.
Worsted spun yarn, finished and then knitted all within 119 miles.
Roll edge neck, cuff and hem add just enough flair without going full Lionel Blair.
Complex, subtle colour tones and a striking but understated pattern, stand alongside soft wool and a satisfyingly textured pattern to make this a king of jumpers.
Received my jumper today and first impressions are love it – great denimy blue tones in the colour, reassuringly heavy, instant favourite jumper status. I’m usually XL and the XL I ordered fits perfectly. Just trying to decide what to go for next
Make yourself comfortable I’m going to spin you a yarn…
The stars aligned on the day that Alan, from Laxtons yarn spinners, came to visit. He’d seen us banging on about making in the UK and being bothered about where materials are sourced and he felt strongly that the provenance of his Sheepsoft yarn was the perfect match for us.
He told us that the yarn was made from the wool of two breeds of sheep in the Yorkshire Dales. This immediately had us on the hook. That this special yarn is both soft and hardwearing had us swallowing the line and sinker.
With the globalised economy we’re so used to wool coming from the other side of the world, that to be offered UK sourced wool that’s also soft was an opportunity we weren’t going to miss.
This jumper is a tangible example of the way that clothing can be made sustainably. There’s full traceability allowing us to produce a natural, renewable and ultimately biodegradeable garment.
The process supports UK farmers and manufacturers, whilst maintaining high levels of animal welfare.
Sheep to yarn all happens within 50 miles. Yarn to finished jumper in 69 miles. Jumper to HebTroCo in 68 miles.
That’s not bad is it?
Ed is sensitive to these things and he’s happy wearing this jumper over a t-shirt. The roll edge neck doesn’t irritate him. If you are super sensitive then you probably wouldn’t want to wear it with nothing underneath. So the answer is that it’s much softer than British wool usually is, but some people may still find it a bit itchy.

Very happily purchased another jumper based on the quality of the big red and big orange. Once again, I was absolutely thrilled. Firstly, there is a beautiful smell of wool (lanolin), the thickness is impressive, and the tight stitching makes this a beautiful jumper. The guernsey style is so unique and this is such a wonderful product. I’ll be wearing it non stop and will contemplate another one. Love what these guys and girls are doing here.
