Inspired by the recent Dior exhibition at the V & A museum and with more than a hint of the 1950s, this little fitted jacket puts a smile on the face of anyone who tries it on. Fully fashioned darts at the waist create the body shaping. Dolman sleeves, collar with revere, raglan armholes and contrast trims including a little half belt at the back, all contribute to a feeling of nostalgia for a time when hand made meant beautiful construction and the closest attention to all details.
The 100% natural fibres used to spin this ultra-soft yarn is a blend of Alpaca and wool.
The main body is an off white shade. The contrast trims are a soft grey melange.
The buttons are covered in a tonal grey woven flannel fabric. Fully Fashioned (Princess Seams) and two-piece sleeves for a classic tailored fit. Single Button Fastening with Moss Stitch trims. 65% Wool 35% Alpaca

About Yarn Mill and your handmade garment
Yarn Mill is the result of a collaboration between three friends Russell, Paul and Melanie who share a love of all things knitted - Garments, Accessories, Soft Furnishings etc. Each is passionate about quality, authenticity, tradition and pushing the boundaries of yarn, stitch development, texture, embellishment and shape. Together they are Yarn Mill.
The name derives from Russell’s ancestral links to the West Yorkshire woollen mills and Paul’s studio base at his family home, a renovated Devon watermill that dates back to the Doomsday Book.
Each of the team is motivated by the desire to create the highest quality, original pieces possible with the minimum impact on the environment. This is not a response to any current fashion trend - rather a recognition of the need for something more personal, individual and lasting.
There is no compromise on the quality of the natural raw materials used - merino wool, alpaca, silk, and linen. These combined with traditional manufacturing techniques result in timeless, original and ultimately desirable pieces.
