There’s a reason the Novice Slipover by PetiteKnit has become a firm favourite with knitters the world over. Simple, stylish, and endlessly wearable, it’s the kind of knit that earns its place in your wardrobe and stays there. And when paired with the right yarn, it really sings.
We made our version in Gwlad, our lofty, worsted spun wool, in the marled shade Fferm. With two plies of pale grey (Colomen) and one ply of deeper grey (Shieling), it’s a yarn that tells a story from the very first stitch, grounded here on our own farm, where Garthenor began. The word Fferm means “farm” in Welsh, and we named it in quiet honour of the land that shaped our work.
