In this age of disposable fashion (and everything else for that matter) it's nice to see a company taking a stand against this by making clothes which are meant to stand the tests of time. Keep & Share are committed to producing great quality hand knitted garments which will 'transcend short-lived trends and age gracefully'. They encourage their customers to buy less and instead spend that little bit extra on good quality timeless classics which have been well designed and manufactured.
At the moment most of the collection is made from non-organic wool as they can't yet source the high amounts of yarns they need locally, but they do have a very small line in their 'Eco Edition' which is made from organic yarn. The clothing is hand-knitted in the UK, mostly on human powered machines and all waste yarn and scraps are recycled and used in their 'Offcuts' collection.
This 'Henderson Wrap' is available in four gorgeous shades and is one size fits all. It costs £195.
