Norse Wool Jumper

100% British Wool


Ed’s dad gave him a jumper in the 1970s but Ed ended up gifting that jumper to a girlfriend. Nostalgia can be a rough ride. He really wished he hadn’t. It’s now four years since we first recreated that fateful jumper and this year we’re bringing it back in a new colour. Knitted exclusively for us in Leicester using British wool. Scandinavian on the eye, English romantic at heart.

Size: 2XL

Since everything we do is made by hand, there can be a slight variation between pieces (up to 2% either way is considered within tolerance). Natural fibres can also shift slightly during production, with a bit of stretch or shrinkage being part of the process.

It’s wool, it doesn’t need washing every time you wear it. If you absolutely have to, cool hand wash only. Do not put it in a washing machine, do not spin it. Dry flat on a table, do not hang on the line, the wool fibres will hate you for it.

This Year's British Wool Jumper

The Norse Jumper has been knitted using 100% pure new wool from sheep that roam freely on the fells and downs of the British Isles. They’re shorn every year in the spring and their fleeces are sent off to the British Wool Board to be hand-graded to ensure it meets the highest standards of quality assurance. The yarn is spun locally to us at Shepley Yarns in Saddleworth.

It’s a really special thing for us to be able to use wool that’s truly homegrown. The rearing of sheep and the trading of their fleeces fuelled the industrial boom that shaped our Northern towns forever. Times have changed and today wool is sourced globally, but we can still do it here, and it’s nice to celebrate that where we can.
