      @Vik is that an IHSH-37 you’re wearing in your avatar? Possibly my fave IH shirt of all time!!

      It's the IHSH-262-NAV 🙂

        Sharing my most recent addition to the ever growing collection of knitwear - bought, not handmade this time round.
        Fell in love with the relatively tight gauge and the completely raw Spanish eco wool, if you look really closely, you can still see specs of hay and straw poking out.
        This puppy (Babaa jumper no. 15) is getting plenty of wear in these cold temps.

              @Vik Here is a place that I went to 30ish years ago and bought a sweater from. They used to raise their sheep and harvest the wool to make sweaters. Everything was done in house a long time ago.

              On the site they have a myriad of different sweaters to view/kits to purchase/etc.

              Hopefully it might help a little: https://philosopherswool.ca/colourways/

                @goosehd What a phenomenal find! Will have to invest a few hours tonight to scroll through their website more thoroughly, love how sustainable their approach is!

                    @goosehd aw man, can't put into words how much I love a good Aran jumper - that's incredibly nice! Was it scratchier at first and soften up with wear?

                      @goosehd I’m sorry, I don’t think I can appreciate the quality until I see you wearing it

                        Don’t laugh, but I understand if you do….

                        Has been huge from the start and I don’t know what I was thinking at the time. Love it though and it’s like wearing a comfort blanket. @Vik Extremely soft now and can’t bear the thought of passing it on (although I should because of the size).

                                      @goosehd Personally like the versatility of the jumper, keeps you warm AND you could smuggle a small goat over country lines undetected in it too!
