A beautifully soft, boxy roll neck knitted here in Edinburgh from 100% Donegal merino wool.
Marcia has that slightly nostalgic, really good jumper shape we always come back to: relaxed through the body, a generous roll neck and intentionally longer sleeves that can either sit low over your hands when it’s properly cold, or be folded back into a deep cuff.
The Donegal-spun yarn is what makes this one particularly special. Rather than a completely flat colour, it has beautiful highs and lows running through it, with tiny flecks and neps that give the knit depth and texture.

The knit has natural give, and there is flexibility between sizes. If you’re between two, we’d choose based on how oversized you like your jumpers and the body length you prefer.

Why Donegal Merino?
We love our Scottish lambs wool for its richness and beautiful saturated colour, but wanted to add something with a slightly different character to the knitwear collection.
This Donegal merino has a much more textured colour. Tiny flecks and neps sit within the yarn, creating those subtle highs and lows that make every knitted surface feel a little more alive.
Merino is also wonderfully practical for colder weather. It’s warm and insulating while still being breathable, making Marcia the sort of knit you can wear right through autumn and winter without feeling overly heavy.
Pre-order
Marcia is currently being knitted for us in Edinburgh in a very limited run.
Pre-ordering allows you to secure your size before the first production is allocated, while also helping us plan our quantities more accurately and avoid making unnecessary stock.
We expect the jumpers to be ready around 24 October, with all pre-orders dispatched by 30 October after they’ve arrived with us for checking and finishing.
Care
Wool is naturally resistant to odours, so it rarely needs washing after every wear. Air between wears where possible.
When needed, gently hand wash using a wool-specific detergent and reshape while damp. Dry flat. Do not tumble dry.
