The Harris Tweed Welsh Wool Sweater

This is the cardigan sweater made entirely from the wool of Welsh mountain sheep and trimmed with genuine Harris tweed. Often likened to cashmere, the sheep's fleece grows very densely to ward off the chill of its native climate, making its yarn an ideal natural insulator. Made in Leicestershire, the heart of England’s knitwear industry, by a firm that has been producing quality garments for nearly 100 years, each sweater requires approximately 2 lbs. of this exquisite wool. This soft, classically tailored cardigan features seams that are traditionally hand-linked for long wear. Handwoven by islanders at their homes in the Outer Hebrides of Scotland, the green tartan Harris tweed adds a unique traditional accent to the shoulders and patch pockets. With fully fashioned raglan sleeves and genuine leather buttons. Hand wash. Green. Sizes M (42-44), L (46-48), XL (50-52), and XXL (54-56).
