As 2015 is the year of the sheep, the H&C Times pays homage to Merino sheep and their superior quality wool. The Merino originated in Spain and it is the most ancient breed of sheep. Merinos tend to live in harsh conditions, as found in Australia and South Africa. Their wool has therefore adapted to the extremes, which is why merino offers vast insulation without being too dense. 

Merino wool is considered to be the finest in the world and it is renowned for its exceptional properties including softness, shine and breathability. These properties, as well as the hard wearing, durable and natural elasticity, make merino wool the obvious choice for our luxurious knitwear.

Celebrate the year of the sheep in style with our merino collection. We are sure you will appreciate the timeless appeal of the pure merino jumpers and cardigans. Crafted in Italy, our lightweight and exceedingly soft knits will make the seasonal transition simply seamless.
