Introducing a labour of love - our first ever Colossal Knit Cardigan, crafted exclusively from pure Irish wool.

Who made it: Designed by Hope and hand-knitted with care by our talented team of local knitters in Northern Ireland. Each cardigan comes with a label which has the knitter’s name who created it, so you’ll know exactly who brought your piece to life. Read more about us here.

How it’s made: Our Colossal Wool is hand-processed by our knitters to achieve the perfect thickness, then hand-knitted entirely without needles - just skilled hands! Only ever made in small quantities.

What it’s made from: 100% Irish wool - responsibly sourced from a small family-run mill and a fully traceable fair-trade network of farmers across Ireland. This innovative blend combines Romney lambswool and Blue Faced Leicester in a carefully crafted ratio, creating an exceptionally soft and luxurious feel. This special knitwear piece includes a QR code you can scan to see exactly where the wool was sourced from in Ireland. Our Irish wool is a natural, renewable and biodegradable fibre.

Design details: Our signature colossal knit stitch with playful balloon sleeves in a dreamy pink Irish wool blend.

How it feels: Soft, chunky, full of comfort and quality.

How it fits: Relaxed, slouchy and boxy.

Weight: Luxuriously heavyweight, breathable and comfortable.

How to style it: Style over your favourite outfit.

Model size: Model is UK 6 and wears size M/L for an oversized fit.

Care tips: Wool is naturally odour resistant and doesn’t require frequent washing. If needed, we recommend spot cleaning, using a professional dry cleaner, and our Knitwear Comb for gentle upkeep.
