The Knitted Vest

Knitted Vest

Made from a new, lighter-weight yarn with beautiful drape and lustre, our V-neck Knitted Vest offers a loose, relaxed fit that adds a cosy layer to any outfit.

Hand-knitted locally in Kent from 100% sustainably sourced Merino wool, this piece combines craftsmanship with conscious design. The boxy silhouette and dropped shoulders create an easy shape, while the garter stitch back provides a subtle contrast in texture from front to back.

A perfect layering piece for year-round wear.

The Keep — Autumn/Winter Collection 2025

By The Make Shed

Designed and constructed in the UK, The Keep is a new collection from The Make Shed — a study in strength, sanctuary, and the quiet beauty of things made to last.

Each garment is thoughtfully crafted from rich fabrics with provenance, chosen for their depth, texture, and timeless quality. From unruly knits to buttery-soft wools, linens, and cottons, every piece carries the mark of its maker — each stitch, seam, and cut tracing a story of care and intention.

Inspired by the inner sanctum of the castle keep, this collection embodies the idea of a modern refuge — clothing that offers comfort and confidence, wrapping the wearer in warmth, resilience, and quiet purpose. There’s a heritage in every detail, yet a bold modernity in how these pieces move and feel.

The palette draws from the natural and the noble: rich chocolate, mineral blue, warm mauves and lilacs, grounded by deep blacks and smoky greys. Each tone speaks of depth and endurance — warming, grounding, and endlessly wearable.

The Keep is more than a collection — it’s a reminder of the strength found in what’s built with care, patience, and soul.
Garments to hold onto. Pieces to live in, love, and keep.
