Lambswool Cardigan
Select colour: Pecan
A new luxury cardigan style based on our Scottish lambswool crew neck. This simple, modern winter layering piece is knitted in Scotland, using yarn from one of the world's oldest spinners, Todd and Duncan. Once knitted, the garment is washed in Scottish spring water to make it beautifully soft. Fit is the same as our lambswool crew neck, true to size. Simply layer over our classic T-shirt or dress up with a flannel shirt.
Lambswool is extra soft as it is the first sheering of the sheep and ours in particular uses the finest lambswool, classed as Geelong, with a micron of 19.5nm. Our lambswool is ethically sourced from non Mulesed sheep by one of Scotland's oldest spinners, Todd and Duncan. Based on the banks of Loch Leven since 1897, Todd and Duncan use the naturally pure, soft Scottish water to soften and open the fibres, resulting in the remarkable feel and superior colour of their lambswool.

Lambswool
Lambswool comes from the first shearing the sheep receives and is the softest wool it ever produces. Our lambswool is an extra fine 18.5 micron Geelong, sourced from non-mulesed sheep and then manufactured entirely in Scotland, a country renowned for its historic knitwear production.
The lambswool yarn is spun by one of the world’s oldest spinners, Todd and Duncan, based on the banks of Loch Leven outside Edinburgh. We work closely with the spinner to create twists in the colour, giving us unique tones which are exclusive to Sunspel. The yarn is then knitted by a specialist manufacturer in Scotland, using seamless machines which eliminate waste as well as making garments that feel comfortable on the shoulders.
Each garment is washed in crystal clear Scottish water using the natural softness of the water to break down any hardness in the fibres. Scotland is unique in having this water – in most other countries softeners and chemicals are needed to create such a soft hand-feel. The result is a jumper of extraordinary softness that rivals the feel of cashmere and is perfect for winter layering.
