Herd Elswick Cardigan – Peat

Honest as the Earth herself, Herd’s knitwear is nature unfurled. There is no harm, no squander, no toxicity, no needless travel. 

Made in the best of English wool traditions and brought to life.

The knitwear collections are all-natural complimentary pieces that embody and imbue all that is the HERD way.

 

Vintage hand-knit inspired, this knit is cosy, cup-of-tea-in-a-china-cup, roaring fireplace and comfy chair rolled into one. Knit in a luxurious weight this cardigan is to be slung on in the depth of winter to keep the draughts and chill out, with scalloped-finished hems and cuffs you will be as warm as the sheep intended. 

This is Herd’s inaugural piece in their Elswick Collection of simple, supersoft jersey knits with their signature elevated touches – a scalloped edge, a chunky rib, blouson sleeves and lace detailing on the pocket.

A longer knit, for absolute comfort.

Wear with long dresses, or a tee (roll up the sleeves to dial up the casual) and pair with jeans and boots for all weekend long. 

Detail – The Elswick Cardigan has raglan shoulders, a blouson sleeve and sweetly scalloped edge on the hem and cuffs.
