A MOHAIR SWEATER TO WEAR ALL YEAR ROUND! 

The combination of colors is truly breathtaking, head-turning!

In fact, knitting it requires a lot of attention and balls of yarn!

Its large, airy knit keeps you just as warm as you need to be.

The knit is very light but very hairy, with exceptional loft.

Each piece is unique because it is hand-knitted. 

A HAND-KNITTED MOHAIR SWEATER

A HAND-KNITTED MOHAIR SWEATER

At first, Raphaëlle knitted our sweaters by hand, then we called on friends, then we had to find a hand-knitting factory, and fortunately we met Ecaterina. She has a big house in Craiova, Romania, where ladies come to hand-knit your mohair sweaters.

Britney knitting requires a lot of attention and balls of yarn! 

It's hand-knit with circular needles for a total color match that literally swirls from the front, to the sleeves, to the back.

We check every piece, because in hand knitting, every piece is unique!

UNIQUE PIECES

This sweater is in stock and not available for pre-order.

Yes, I do a lot of pre-ordering, but this sweater is in stock!

Why is that? Simply because hand knitting, which makes for some very, very beautiful and very furry sweaters, is still very much a craft. Each person knits in his or her own way, and I'd even go so far as to say that the same person doesn't knit the same thing twice. So I prefer to order very small series that I can check in detail and offer for sale as soon as I have the pieces in hand.

A FRENCH THREAD

The mohair yarn we use for this hand-knitted sweater is a chunky yarn (hand-knitting obliges). It comes from one of the last French spinners on the Millevaches plateau. His hollow-spindle spinning capacity is very limited because his machine is too old. So he buys the raw yarn in Italy and dyes it in France, but within 18 to 24 months, he hopes to be able to spin his mohair yarn into scraped bouclettes again in his workshops, thanks to investment in more modern machinery. The dyeing is carried out in France, and it's a bamboo-filled basin, totally natural and highly efficient, that retreats the dyeing water. 

HOW TO WASH YOUR BRITNEY SWEATER?

Here are our tips for washing and caring for your hand-knitted mohair sweater: 

The Britney sweater is very thick and quite heavy. I do not recommend hand washing.

I recommend either dry cleaning or machine washing, following the washing instructions below: 

  • Choose a delicate WOOL program for a soothing wash and take care to : 
  • Set spin speed to 800 rpm
  • Set temperature to 30°C
  • Place your sweater in a laundry net 
  • Use a special eco-friendly wool detergent
  • Use little detergent 
  • Take out the sweater at the end of the cycle
  • Lay flat on a towel and turn over halfway through drying.
