Process
This blanket has been created using intricately knitted fabrics imbued with a strong sense of British identity rooted to culture, process, and place. Crafted on a domestic frame, operated by hand, with all designs hand woven into the knit, this is an excellent example of sustainable design.


Making Process

The Good Shepherd is a knitwear company founded in 2013 by RCA graduate Emily Watts. Specialising in hand knitted textiles, the brand creates intricately knitted cushions and throws imbued with a strong sense of British identity, rooted to culture, process and place. The Good Shepherd draws inspiration from the exposed, windswept landscape of the Shetland Islands, following a research trip to Shetland’s northernmost isles where much of Emily’s yarn is sourced.
