ABOUT THE COLOURWAY
Navy Blue is a deep, classic blue with timeless appeal, sitting between midnight blue and deep ink blue. Rich and sophisticated without feeling overly dark, this enduring shade has a smart, understated character that makes it particularly easy to wear. Effortlessly versatile, it pairs beautifully with soft grey, taupe, denim and cream, as well as richer shades such as burgundy and forest green.

HANDMADE IN NEPAL
Our merino accessories are finely knitted by skilled artisans at a small workshop in the Kathmandu Valley, Nepal. The workshop works to fair trade principles, combining skilled craftsmanship with carefully controlled small-scale production. Unlike our hand-knitted wool collection, these pieces are made using hand-operated knitting machines. The machines are manually controlled by the artisans, bringing together the precision of fine-gauge knitting with the skill and attention of the person making each piece.
MATERIAL, CRAFT & NATURAL VARIATION
Our fine-knit accessories are made from supersoft, finely spun, non-mulesed merino wool. Naturally insulating, breathable, elastic and resilient, merino wool provides warmth without unnecessary bulk, with a soft, comfortable feel against the skin. Wool naturally resists odours and requires relatively infrequent washing. Natural shades of grey, brown and cream are undyed, while other colours are created using azo-free dyes.
MORE ABOUT THE ARTISAN PROCESS
- Knitting by hand-operated machine: Each piece is finely knitted on a hand-operated knitting machine. Rather than being part of an automated production line, the machine is manually operated by a skilled artisan who controls the fabric as it is created. The clack of the machines makes the workshop a hive of activity!
- Linking for precision seams: When working with delicate merino wool, a linking machine is used to seam and assemble individual knitted panels — such as closing side seams and attaching neckbands and edging — with a flexible chain stitch that moves and stretches with the natural give of the yarn.
- Finishing by hand: Every piece is finished by hand: yarn ends are invisibly woven into the knit; and the finger ends of every glove are double stitched for strength.
- Pressing: Finally, the workshop team carefully checks and presses each piece, ready to send to us.
