Oversized machine knit sweater. Wide, relaxed body, knitted in an 8–gauge fisherman knit. Dropped shoulders, generous room through the armholes, long sleeves, thin ribbing at the neckline, cuffs, and hem. A continuation of our experiment in production, to map the few wool suppliers and processors still operating in Australia. This garment is entirely produced in NSW and Victoria.

- 100% Merino Wool. Natural coloured wool from black and brown Merinos grown on Coonong Station in the Australian Riverina. A flock of 700 black Merino ewes are run and shorn separately from the station’s 32,000 white Merinos to avoid fibre contamination in the lines. Scoured at EP Robinson, tops made at Cashmere Connections, spun at Wangaratta Woolen Mills.
