KNITWEAR

Additionally, a great number of the pieces, especially those by Inis Meáin, borrow techniques and styles from generations of tradition. Different types of stitch offer different properties and uses for the garment. A tight, closely knitted stitch gives more wind protection and warmth, whereas other patterns give increased flexibility, allowing the knitwear to serve its original purpose as a workwear item.

Our collection also includes both heavy and light knit pieces, some appropriate for the depths of winter and others, just for colder days. The specific wool type and stitch are given with each piece so you can ascertain the fit and feel of our items. A number of the HANSEN Garments pieces are made in Denmark at one of the very few knitting companies left in this country. Thanks to the piece’s inspiration from a rich fishing heritage and the environment they are constructed in, the garments are steeped tradition.Many of the pieces are also offered in several colourways, meaning you have the choice to decide which scheme fits better with your wardrobe. These are brilliant quality items which will stay with you for a lifetime.
