And, for the gents, the rugged, 4 ply Herdsman, a hard wearing garment that features yarns that have been "spun in the colour of the British bred sheep who supplied it". This is a staple garment, one that you always expect to have in your wardrobe. Here in the States, we would call this a Ragg Sweater. This Made in Scotland Herdsman is so much better.

Superb garments in every respect! Thank you so very much!
ReplyDeleteIs the 'ecology' wool sweater, like ragg wool, is a bit more scratchy/prickly than 4 ply shetland?
ReplyDeleteIt is not as soft as the 4 ply Shetland but it doesn't feel overly rough either. (Not very helpful!!)
DeleteHad to ask. I grew up wearing ragg wool sweaters and socks. The qualities of the wool are great for shedding and repelling water, but they usually feel more like old-school prickly wool than many other alternatives - Shetland, Merino, Norwegian, and Icelandic wool all feel softer. It's an interesting style, though, and most places don't sell them anymore. thanks for posting the information and link.
DeleteI absolutely love a good khaki pant and the last ones I owned were wore into the ground. I can't repurchase them because I bought them second hand at a tag sale and I'm not even sure if they were women's or men's khaki pants. They were from the Toggery Shop, I don't know if they are in business any longer either.
