When people think of knitwear, they usually think of fall and winter. Understandable, but not quite right. Knitwear is not just for cold days— it’s a year-round essential. And in fact, summer knitwear is a must- have in any wardrobe: breathable, easygoing, and surprisingly versatile. Since the start of Howlin’, our aim has been to bring a fresh, slightly twisted approach to Scottish knitwear while respecting its rich heritage. We keep the best of traditional techniques and combine them with new technologies, patterns, colours, and ideas.

 In an ever-faster and more automated economy, we are eager to slow things down and focus on crafting well-made products. It’s a niche, but one we embrace. Just like a small record label releasing hand-stamped 7-inch records with personal liner notes — it’s the beauty in the details. Each Howlin’ garment is handled individually and with care throughout its entire production, from the first precise stitch to the final pressing and folding. All our yarns are carefully sourced according to strict quality and sustainability standards.Our beloved planet Earth holds a special place in our hearts, and we believe it’s the best planet out there (as far as we know). That’s why we strive to keep our impact on it as low as possible. Our natural yarns come from local mills, with some completing every stage of production under one roof. This includes grading, scouring, and dyeing the fleece, followed by colour blending, carding, spinning, twisting, and balling — resulting in a unique 100% pure Shetland yarn. A quality often imitated, but never duplicated.
