Lammermuirs Top
The Lammermuirs Top is inspired by the range of rolling hills that welcome visitors to the Scottish Borders. Wonderfully rich in wildlife, history and beautiful landscapes, in midsummer they are covered by a blanket of heather in bloom.
Lammermuirs is the perfect summer top for light strolls, using shiny hand-dyed Tencel yarn to keep the body cool.
