Haworth cardigan by Jonna Helin
Named after the Yorkshire village where the Brontë sisters lived and wrote, Haworth is a cardigan that carries with it a sense of windswept solitude, quiet strength and poetic restraint. Like the moors that stretch beyond the parsonage walls, it is understated yet deeply textured — a garment that feels grounded in the natural world, shaped by weather and worn stories. Worked in a soft blend of wool and mohair, the fabric holds warmth and air in equal measure, creating a comforting layer that feels both modern and timeless. The muted sandy colour evokes fog over heather, stone paths through grass and the gentle light of a northern morning: calm, neutral, enduring.
