Mythology-Inspired Merino Wool Shawl – Handcrafted in Kent, England. The Helena shawl draws on the beauty of Classical mythology, with Cupid strumming a lyre across a golden landscape. Ancient Greek columns, theatre masks, cherubs, and clamshells form an intricate, elegant pattern that celebrates the stories of ancient civilisations. Knitted in Kent from sustainably sourced merino wool in gold and creamy white tones, Helena is a soft, sophisticated tribute to timeless tales and enduring craftsmanship. Perfect for special occasions, evening wear, or adding a touch of drama to everyday looks. Sustainability: this shawl is designed and knitted in Bridge Village, Kent, using 100% sustainably sourced merino wool that originates from Spain. The wool comes from non-mulesed sheep, is spun in England, and dyed with OKEO-TEX standard dyes. It’s a 100% natural fiber and biodegradable. Washing instructions: Make sure your sink is clean or use a plastic bowl. Fill with cold water. A few drops of mild detergent. If you don’t have detergent on hand, regular liquid soap will do the trick. Throw your merino shawl into the soapy water and let it soak for 10 minutes. Gently agitate the water from time to time. Drain and rinse your piece with fresh water. Do not wring out. Drying: The best way to dry your merino shawl is by laying it flat on a towel and flipping it from time to time. This takes a little longer, but it’s the best way to care for it. Alternatively, you can hang it to dry over a chair or banister. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
