  • A timeless classic with a touch of equestrian elegance.

    This fitted, hand-knitted peplum jacket is nipped in at the waist and finished with a softly pleated peplum, creating a flattering, feminine silhouette. A neat small collar and highball antique-bronze button fastening complete the design. Carefully hand-knitted and neatly finished in our rare breed wool, it is a distinctive piece inspired by the enduring elegance of traditional riding wear.

  • Caring for your Goatherdess wool jacket

    Wool is naturally resilient and requires very little washing. Allowing the fibres to breathe between wears is often all that is needed.

    • Air after wearing — hang or lay flat somewhere well ventilated and allow the wool to breathe.

    • Spot clean where needed — gently dab marks with cool water rather than washing the whole garment.

    • Hand wash only if necessary — use cool water and a small amount of gentle wool detergent. Do not rub, wring or agitate, as this can cause the wool to felt or lose its shape.

    • Rinse gently in cool water and press out excess water without twisting.

    • Dry flat, reshaping the jacket carefully while damp. Keep away from direct heat and radiators.

    • Store folded rather than hanging for long periods to help preserve the shape of the knitted peplum.

    A little care goes a long way. Wool was made to be lived in, and with gentle care, your Goatherdess jacket is designed to be worn and cherished for many seasons.

  • Handknitted & made to order

    Every Goatherdess knitted piece is handknitted to order.. This means your jacket is made especially for you, rather than taken from a stock of ready-made garments.

    Handknitting is a slow process, and each piece takes many hours to create and carefully finish. Small variations in the texture and character of the wool are part of what makes a handknitted garment unique.

    Please allow 4–6 weeks for delivery.

    Your jacket will be made especially for you, with the time and care that handmade work deserves. We believe clothing made this way is worth waiting for — a piece to wear, live in and cherish for years to come.
