Description

Harley of Scotland remains one of the few Scottish manufacturers specialising in genuine seamless knitwear. Each sweater is knitted as a single continuous piece, eliminating side seams and traditional panel construction to provide a naturally balanced fit, superior comfort and exceptional durability.

This sweater is crafted from premium Supersoft Shetland Wool spun by J.C. Rennie at Milladen Mill in Scotland. Renowned for its excellent thermal properties, breathability and resilience, the yarn retains the authentic character of traditional Shetland wool while offering a noticeably softer handle.

The signature Shaggy finish is created by brushing the completed garment once using a natural teasel (Dipsacus Fullonum), a dried thistle that has been used in wool mills for centuries. Its flexible hooks gently lift the fibres without damaging them, producing a soft, lightly brushed surface that enhances warmth, loft and texture while preserving the wool's natural integrity.

Fit & Sizing

Its medium-weight knit and slightly open stitch structure provide an excellent balance of warmth and breathability. The regular fit and classic crew neck make it equally suitable for layering over a T-shirt or shirt, whether worn beneath outerwear or on its own throughout the colder months.

Why we selected it

We selected this sweater for its outstanding craftsmanship and authenticity. Combining genuine seamless knitting, premium Shetland wool spun by J.C. Rennie and a traditional Shaggy finish achieved using natural teasels, it perfectly reflects Scotland's rich knitting heritage. The deep Evergreen shade adds subtle character while remaining exceptionally versatile with denim, wool trousers or chinos.
