SEA WHISPER is the result of a wonderful collaboration between myself and Woolly Mammoth Fibre Co in Northern Ireland. Sea Whisper is knit in Emma’s NEW no nylon, non-superwash sock yarn, Hearth Sock, a gorgeous mix of BFL and Jacob wools.

SEA WHISPER is a one skein, unisex, textured cowl, knit top down in the round, using Gansey-inspired stitches.
This funnel-like shaped cowl gives you extra warmth around the neck and shoulders, with its narrower top half keeping you snug as a bug!

One Skein - For the most part - please see yarn specifics below for more information.
