An elegant knit with engineered pattern, which can be worn in several ways. This cape is an easy, sophisticated alternative to a sweater or cardigan. The gorgeous drape of merino gives a beautiful, flowing line.

Design

This collection came about from an ideas exchange with Scottish artist Karlyn Sutherland. Inspiration came from by her installation in a byre at Latheronwheel in northern Scotland—where she mapped the fall of light. The Nielanell Byre collection is an interpretation of Karlyn's work in knit, making pieces of wearable art.

Materials

  • 100% extra-fine merino wool (Oeko-Tex Standard 100)

Manufacture

We are committed to sustaining and being part of UK knitwear manufacturing – and Shetland’s place in this.

  • We design Nielanell knitwear in our Hoswick studio, with initial concepts carefully translated into the flat panels needed to make up each piece.
  • Currently, for this garment, we are working with specialist knitters in Mainland UK to make these panels.
  • The garment itself is made in Shetland. Our in-house team in Hoswick transforms the flat panels into a wearable piece of knitwear using linking (a skilled knitting process) and hand-finishing.
  • Our knitwear is made in very small batches, slowly. Each piece of Nielanell knitwear can take approximately 12-16 weeks (often longer) from weighing out the yarn needed in our studio to the garment being ready to wear.
Installation by Karlyn Sutherland, at Latheronwheel, Caithness

Design inspiration

The Byre collection of knitwear takes the glass pieces and drawings made by Karlyn Sutherland, and reinterprets these in knit—both the 'pattern' and the shapes of the garments are related to the installation.

Karlyn Sutherland mapped the fall of light within a historic byre (cattle barn) at Latheronwheel, near Lybster in Caithness.

Karlyn's drawings made on specific days at specific times then became panels of glass, which she hung in the space. Each of these shapes of light are only seen once a year (on a clear day)—the glass becomes a recording and echo of the light.

Drawings of the fall and movement of light, later to be made in glass.

Lightweight but so is the original
When the package arrived it was in a very thin lightweight box that was crushed on one side. I thought for sure it was trashed. By chance…all was good. The lights are thin plastic but made very close to the original standard. They fit well on the car but the gasket needs to be tucked in around the edges. That material seems thin. The end result is actually a nice looking inexpensive light. Overall I am happy.
