Golden Eagle

  • The Golden Eagle 'Lady's Jumper' pattern is a textural delight, knit from the bottom up with statement rippling stripes, each one finished with a bow! Knit in pieces and sew, with button closure at the back and shoulder pads to give the sleeve the perfect amount of puff, this stylish knit can be dressed up or down: the perfect party sweater, but also a wonderful way to inject a little fun into an everyday look.

    Golden Eagle 'Lady's Jumper' is knitted using Excelana North fingering weight a soft, fingering weight 100% British wool, spun for us in nearby Yorkshire and dyed in-house by Susan and her team. Shown here in shades Spruce, Plum Jam, Sheffield Steel and French Rose.
