Lighthouse - Tiree Red
Lighthouse - Tiree Red
100% Glenugie Nep (formerly known as Soft Donegal) Chunky 4 Ply Wide Funnel Neck Sweater
Our new Blue Mogganer Lighthouse (exclusive to Bosie) is a beautifully thick and solid Glenugie Nep Fisherman’s sweater with an unusal extra-wide funnel neck, contemporary shaping and chunky ribbed cuffs. We got a little bit obsessed with creating this knit after seeing a picture of the actor Robert Pattinson from the film The Lighthouse, and how elegant the neck of his sweater looked in that particular photograph. So we enlisted the authentically vintage marine knitting know-how of Harley of Scotland to help us evoke this look and we are truly delighted with the results. Knitted seam-free in beautifully rustic and rich-hued Soft Donegal Merino with lovely nep’s in the wool, each colour is named after an island on the beautiful West Coast of Scotland.
Tiree Red is a deep, rich red with tiny neps of bright red and mid blue.
Our town of Peterhead was nicknamed The ‘Blue Toon’ and fishermen were locally branded as ‘Blue Mogganer’s’ in tribute to the (often Blue) Moggan’s (thick knitted socks) they wore. Made by Harley of Scotland whose founder, Peter Harley, started out his business knitting some of those very Moggan’s, the real deal.
