SHAGGY DOG SWEATER
A crew neck sweater made in collaboration with JCRENNIE, a Scottish spinning company famous for its Shetland wool.
"SHAGGY DOG" SWEATER, named by J.PRESS, is the representative Shetland sweater that has been knitted in the Shetland Islands, the northernmost tip of Scotland, for over 500 years.
We use Shetland blend yarn, and to increase heat retention, we run it twice through a special brushing machine that uses chisel (thistle) seed thorns to make it fluffy.
This is a masterpiece with a fluffy surface and a texture reminiscent of the dog's fur from which it takes its name.
