PLEASE NOTE This is a preorder product and it will be published on 26th November
This book is a love letter to the Scottish coasts where Rebecca Clow has lived all her life. The collection features 12 garments and 6 accessories that draw inspiration from traditional ganseys and Scotland’s rich knitting heritage, combining creativity with practical warmth. Designed for brisk sea breezes and rolling coastal mist, these knits make incredibly cosy, versatile wardrobe staples.
Each design reflects Rebecca’s deep connection to the sea, its shifting textures and quiet calm. Rebecca’s treasured memories of Scottish harbour towns and sailing trips to wind-swept isles with her grandparents are evoked by each pattern, giving them a rich sense of story and place.

Whether you want a quick winter project or are buying this for a gift, the hand dyed yarn will elevate a very simple chunky knit hat into something truly unique. Suitable for beginners who can knit, purl and decrease.
The Merino yarn is so soft and squishy and will keep you very cosy. The yarn has been hand dyed by myself with professional acid dyes.
My yarns are always meticulously rinsed until the water runs clear but some dye may bleed as with all hand dyed items.
Spot cleaning or a very mild handwash recommended. Dry flat.
