British Wool Yarn

British Wool, we love using it so much that we are a Licensed gold supplier from British Wool. Buying a licensed British Wool Sweater, Cardigan, Scarf or Hat supports the 35,000 sheep farmers in the UK who are apart of British Wool. It ensures that there is a fair stable market for British Wool and that the fibers that make up our garments are ethically sourced and supplied.
We offer a wide range of colour's including natural yarns such as Light grey Welsh, Dark Grey Welsh and Black Welsh. Our 100% British Wool knitwear makes the most of the natural properties of the yarn and colour, which makes every piece of knitwear unique. The natural oils in the wool (Lanolin) helps shrug of dirt and sheds water droplets. Compared to synthetic fibers wool is biodegradable and ecologically friendly.
For a piece of mind, you can find our suppliers profile on the British Wool website here.

We partnered with Harris Tweed to create a collection of sweaters utilizing Harris Tweed for the patches. Each Harris Tweed Pattern has been handpicked by our design team at Outdoor Knitwear to help compliment the colours of the British Wool Yarns. This has resulted in a beautiful range of knitwear for every occasion. The collection covers all types of our knitwear from sweaters and cardigans to rib knit roll neck sweaters.
Using British Wool and Harris Tweed makes each piece of kntiwear individual and unique. This is due to the yarn dyes or natural colours of British Wool Yarns combined with the hand woven fabric of Harris Tweed. This combination means that two pieces of knitwear are never the same.

Just Received!!!
First the Good: For my particular instance, the size chart was extremely accurate. The fit is snug, as expected with plenty of room in the shoulders, sleeve's and body length. I had this exact sweater some 20 years back and it's the same quality.....no exceptions! Delivery was excellent, only taking from order date to my door about 2 weeks. Now the Great: If you've never owned one you should. This is an excellent and essential piece of outdoor wear. Here in the states, Michigan has some extremely cold weather months with temps dipping below 10 degrees during the day. This sweater with a long sleeve shirt under and a down vest over.....I'm good to go about the business at hand. A plus is that you have the option for it to be worn as a casual or dress garment....Jeans or dress pants, it's appropriate. Thank you TW Kempton.....I'll be buying again SOON!!!
