Our iconic red Ada cardigan is back in stock!

The Ada cardigan is a lightweight knit made from 100% British spun supersoft lambswool knitted in the UK.  It's the perfect red.  A true saturated rich red that's not too bright but strong enough to make a statement and works with most skin tones.

Blending British craftsmanship with modern design, Ada has our signature boxy fit and is slightly cropped to sit at the hip.  It is light and airy to wear and perfect for all year around.  The slightly cropped length means it works well with skirts and mid to high waist trousers.

The buttons are made in England from corozo nuts.  All of the cardigan is made from natural materials, from the specially sourced 100% orgnaic cotton grosgrain ribbon for the button stand to the pure cotton thread it's sewn with. 

Our lambswool is brushed with natural teasels after knitting to give it a fluffy slightly felted feel.  The teasels are set into a vintage machine which lifts and pulls the fibres to produce the characteristic fluffy texture. This completely natural and highly effective artisanal technique has been used for centuries to brush and soften yarn.

The Ada cardigan is knitted in the round meaning that it has no seams and is finished by hand.  Seamless knitting no only produces a beautiful garment, it uses less yarn and produces significantly less waste.
