Mitchell & Black knitwear are a design lead duo handcrafting unique collections of knitted accessories using only the finest of yarns. Mitchell & Black knitwear turn the ordinary into extraordinary creating timeless pieces in vibrant colours and contemporary patterns.

Established in 2011, Mitchell & Black was built on the knowledge and expertise of two constructed textile professionals with a mutual love of knitwear.

All their products are made from 100% lambswool which is spun and dyed by Z. Hinchcliffe a well established Yorkshire based spinner and dyer.

The raw materials for the lambswool is sourced from the merino breed of sheep from Australia and South Africa where Z. Hinchcliffe ensure animal welfare is high on their agenda.

Lambswool is the first shearing of the merino sheep and produces the softest and finest wool. This in turn allows them to produce finished items of an exceptionally high standard and quality.

They take sustainability seriously and endeavour to use suppliers who have the same ethos. Lambswool is recyclable, compostable, biodegradable and is naturally renewable making it friendly to the environment.

Our aim is to produce timeless, high quality accessories which become wardrobe staples and can be worn for many years to come.

The entire range is designed and made by themselves in their home studios on the East Coast of Scotland. They use a variety of hand powered knitting machines to produce their colourful, patterned fabrics. They knit, construct and hand finish every item to ensure the upmost quality at every stage.
