We Think

One of the very many things we love about Frankie's Charl Knitwear is the tradition and stories behind each piece that makes them even more special: The Middleton jumper takes it name from Sally Middleton who lived in Upper Sheringham, Norfolk and of whom there are some beautiful photographs taken by Olive Edis of her standing in the doorway to her cottage . Sally is the only woman known to have worn a version of a Gansey jumper that she knitted for herself. Traditionally women never wore the finished Ganseys, they only knitted them, saving the finished prices for their menfolk. Frankie named this piece after Sally to celebrate both an expert Gansey knitter (who knitted for herself) and the talented female photographer who captured her image for posterity.

Details

MIDDLETON. Oatmeal & Navy Stripe by Charl Knitwear. PRE-ORDER. Drawing inspiration from the Norfolk fishermen’s Gansey jumpers of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Middleton is a nautically striped, lighter weight jumper knitted in Italy from certified British wool. This jumper is the perfect addition to a “seasonless” wardrobe, it is light and airy in Frankie's classic roomy silhouette, with a flattering curved hem, fastened at the sides with 2 buttons that can be left open to create side splits on a warmer day, or if you want to style with a billowy shirt or dress, or buttoned down for an evening stroll. The stripe chosen for this piece is a play on the classic nautical stripe that has been cleverly worked to continue over the shoulders and across the side splits with no bulky seams. The stripes create a beautiful sense of movement in the piece, a simple but considered classic. The buttons used are all made from 100% natural corozo nut and colour match the Navy blue of the jumper. Knitted in 100% traceable British worsted wool, spun in Yorkshire and knitted in Perugia, Italy by a wonderful family run business of largely female craftspeople. Hand wash only when necessary* in cold or tepid water. Reshape whilst damp. Dry flat. Do not tumble dry. Gently steam (using the steam setting on your iron). *Most knitwear will refresh with a hang outside on a bright and breezy day. Find Charl Knitwear at www.youngbritishdesigners.com
