"Navygrey's classic cardigan is an easy style to wear"
Financial Times

In homage to the cardigan worn daily by Founder Rachel's grandfather. Relaxed yet polished, practical and versatile, our cardigan hits that sweet spot of being both classic and modern. A real 'take me anywhere' piece that encapsulates the kind of stylish pragmatism that we love. Knitted in Scotland from 100% traceable Scottish-spun Lamb's wool. Finished with our signature horizontal placket and sustainably-sourced Mother of Pearl buttons.

 

A classic subtly oversized Cardigan. With a v-neck fine ribbed placket. Wear buttoned-up or undone.

Take your usual size for a fit as shown in the images. See the Size & Fit Guide above for more information.

This is our softest wool. It's a sweet spot of real softness with substance. Warming and structured, this knit is in a mid-weight gauge. It's the purity of the Scottish water used throughout the spinning process that makes this wool feel so smooth and soft.

Less is best. Caring for 100% natural wool knitwear doesn't have to be complicated, we promise.

WASH LESS, AIR MORE
We recommend airing as the best way to look after your knit, with a hand wash in a basin (step away from the machine) every now and then. Read more about washing less and airing more. We believe in it so much that we even started a club.

MANAGING PILLING
Soft fibres are liable to pill to some extent, even when it's the best wools in the world. We recommend gently removing them with this specialist fabric shaver. It really is a game changer for keeping your knits in tip top condition.

Each knit comes with its own organic cotton storage bag and is shipped in boxes made from post-consumer waste in the UK.

Pragmatic style

Inspired by the one worn daily by our founder's grandfather, our made in Scotland cardigan has a horizontal button placket, matching ribbed cuffs, hem and two excellent pockets.

Designed to sit at the hip, it's the V-neck, patch pockets and boxier cut that makes this a flattering and versatile shape - a just right layering piece all year round. 

Button up completely for a jumper take on the cardigan, or layer over your favourite blouses and tops.

Designed for traditionalists, spun with a touch of luxury.

100% luxurious, Scottish-spun traceable wool

Made from 100% Superfine Lamb's Wool that is sourced from a special breed of sheep in South Africa. With a fibre diameter of c. 18.5 microns, it is one of the world's finest and softest Lambs Wools. (Most average 21-24 microns). 

The wool arrives in Scotland by boat where it is spun and dyed on the banks of Loch Leven in Kinross by Todd & Duncan, one of the finest Scottish Mills which has been spinning yarn for 150+ years. 

85% of the dyes used by Todd & Duncan are organic and the water used for washing and dyeing the wool is cleaned and purified before being returned to Loch Leven to be used again. It is a pioneering and cyclical process that helps to protect the environment in and around the loch. 

The yarn is then sent to Hawick in Scotland where our team knit and hand-finish each cardigan. Due to the fully-fashioned knitting technique we employ and as we produce in small batches, there is very little yarn wastage. 

The cardigans are finished with sustainably-sourced Mother of Pearl buttons, organic cotton care labels and sealed in linen bags.
