Some items to look out for - they've got something called a Helen Shrug - and this looks really good - made from soft pure new wool makes this gorgeous soft shrug. Spun without using harmful chemicals this has a fabulous handfeel, a great extra layer for cooler days whilst remaining stylish
  • 100% Wool
  • Made in the UK
  • Dyed using Azo Free Dye
  • This is made by Frank & Faith who are very passionate about supporting and working with UK producers and manufacturers. Sadly the UK garment industry has rapidly declined with many businesses moving off-shore for their fabric and garment production. Frank & Faith work with one of the oldest spinners in the country, supporting the yarn production industry. All Frank & Faith knitwear is fully fashioned using traditional knitting machines, they are made to high quality and are finished by linking the final panels together in the traditional way of knitwear production
Adili has a nice mix of everyday clothing which includes soft t-shirts, leggings, jeans, jumps and coats to extra special fashion dresses which you know will have been made in a fairtrade way!
