A timeless women’s Fair Isle sweater in pure Shetland wool — designed for lightweight warmth, effortless layering, and everyday wear.
Cool, refined, and quietly luminous, our Fair Isle Knit in Opal & Smoke brings together heritage Scottish craftsmanship with the practical beauty GGCo. is known for.
The dark duck egg blue/soft verdigris-toned body carries a gentle mineral depth — fresh without feeling bright — while the smoke grey Fair Isle detailing at the collar and cuffs introduces a calm, grounding contrast that feels both modern and enduring.
This is knitwear designed to work hard in real wardrobes.

For 2026, our Fair Isle knitwear is produced with a new yarn supplier. While the overall palette remains true to the GGCo aesthetic, some tones have naturally shifted.
To ensure complete clarity and avoid confusion with past seasons, several colourways have been thoughtfully renamed to reflect the current yarn shades.
Opal & Smoke is one of our new-season colourways, it isn't grey; it's more like a dark duck egg blue/verdigris/seagreen/bluegrass/hailstorm colour, created to sit beautifully alongside returning favourites in their refreshed tones.
Crafted in the Grampian region of Scotland from 100% pure Supersoft Shetland wool, this knit is a seamless fusion of rugged durability and refined luxury. Its zero-waste, seam-free construction ensures a smooth, contoured fit, while the natural warmth of Shetland wool provides insulation without bulk.
Versatile and effortlessly wearable, this is an essential layering piece — perfect for crisp autumn walks, fireside gatherings, or elevating everyday moments with a touch of heritage charm. A piece of Scottish craftsmanship, thoughtfully reimagined for modern landscapes — whether you're exploring the great outdoors, strolling through city streets, or embracing the simple comforts of home.
From the most rugged mountain adventures to the cosiest couch snuggles, your Fair Isle sweater can go anywhere with you. Because it's so lightweight & versatile, it’s the perfect travel companion; easy to pair with jeans for a casual coffee date, or even over a dress for a night out.
Its natural fibres are easy to care for with a cool, gentle handwash and a touch of admiration!
These new knits are the result of true workmanship and we’re delighted to bring a piece of the Scottish Grampian region to our Australian Grampians and beyond. We hope you love them as much as we do.
