Women's Shetland Wool

The evolution of Shetland sheep has been largely unaided by human intervention since the 18th century. To stave off the ravages of the cold, wet Scottish climate Shetland sheep developed a dense coat of fine fibers, rich with lanolin. The result is a formidable weight-to-heat ratio (light in weight, heavy on warmth). Our collection of women’s Shetland wool sweaters mirrors this natural phenonium—a traditional looser two-ply knit offering considerable warmth. Our collection of women’s Shetland wool cardigans and classic women’s Shetland wool crew neck sweaters are offered in a range of timeless shades. An authentic Shetland wool sweater—our Shetland jumpers are made in Scotland from premium lambswool Shetland yarn. The Lanam Shop collection of women’s Shetland wool knitwear will quickly become a favorite of cooler months.
