The Eribé Westray Block Sweater Balmoral plays beautifully with cool colours and unexpected warm accents. Lavender blue forms the calm base, while turquoise, orange, soft yellow and various pastel shades run through the Fair Isle knitting. The bright orange cuffs add just the right touch of contrast to make Balmoral instantly stand out.

The colour placement itself also makes this style distinctive. The finely knitted pattern is given plenty of space across the front, while a large turquoise panel creates an unexpected contrast at the back. This gives the sweater a different look from every angle and makes the colours stand out even more.

The round neckline and regular fit keep the silhouette understated, allowing the knitting to take centre stage. Pair Balmoral with dark denim or navy for a strong contrast, or choose soft grey, ecru or light blue when you want to emphasise the fresher side of the colour palette.

The Eribé Westray Block Sweater Balmoral is knitted from 100% soft Shetland wool. This traditional wool is known for its low weight and excellent warmth. The fibres trap air, providing good insulation, while the natural texture of Shetland wool gives the knitting a lively, authentic character. This quality comes through particularly beautifully in Balmoral’s many colours.

A colourful wool sweater that feels cheerful without being loud, bringing traditional Scottish knitting into a fresh, contemporary design.

The story behind the Eribé Westray Block Sweater
The Eribé Westray Block Sweater is a tribute to the rugged beauty of the Scottish islands. With its striking colour blocking and bold contrasts, the design captures the power of nature: waves crashing against cliffs, winds sweeping across the heath, and the shifting shades of sea and sky.

Rosemary Eribé, the visionary designer behind the brand, was inspired by the historic Westray sweaters once worn by fishermen and islanders. These garments were more than clothing: they offered protection against the elements and symbolised community and belonging.

Through her modern perspective, Rosemary has reimagined this heritage. The Westray Block Sweater combines traditional Fair Isle knitting techniques with contemporary colour blocking. The result is a dynamic, graphic design that feels both timeless and forward-looking.

This sweater is more than warmth – it tells a story of Scottish tradition, the strength of craftsmanship, and Rosemary Eribé’s creative vision.
