A celebration of British Wool and Knit

No.16

100% Wool Rug Hand Knitted

It’s two years since Connolly showed the last Knitwise initiative, a collection of hand-knitted rugs made in collaboration with !e King’s Foundation. Since then we have been working with the talented knitters of Dumfries House on a new project celebrating British wool clipped from native rare breeds, alongside His Majesty King Charles’s own clip from Dumfries House.

The Knitwise ladies have spent over 100 hours on each piece, using both traditional and freestyle knit stitches to showcase their skill and technique. Working collaboratively as a collective, they have created these one-of-a-kind knitted works made from the wools of the rare sheep breeds found at Dumfries House and the United Kingdom, including the Cheviot, the Castlemilk Moorit and the Herdwick.

This project is supported by !e King’s Foundation and the Joseph Ettedgui Charitable Foundation.

All proceeds from the sale of the King’s Clip flock will go to two charities of the Knitwise group’s choice: Cancer Research UK and Ayrshire Cancer Support.
