    The April is the Cruellest Month jumper crafted in plum lambswool. Knitted in Scotland the pieces incorporate a manifesto text that is screen printed by hand with honey orange ink. The Cruellest Month knits take influence from the teachings of psychoanalyst and prophet Carl Jung and the poetry of TS Eliot. 

    The ‘Afternoon of Life’ Collection celebrates the second act of life. The collection is a meditation on the turning point we all reach in the second half of life, the  moment when outward striving gives way to inward reckoning. Jung wrote that to live fully, we must journey inward, confronting the shadows we once ignored and making peace with the self we abandoned in the chase for recognition. 

    Handcrafted in Scotland from 100% lambswool.
