Wide collared knitted shawl

This wide‑collared knitted shawl wraps you in a deep cocoon of warmth, designed and made on the Fleurieu Peninsula for cool evenings, travel and special occasions. Each shawl is knitted to order in the Fleurieu Made studio, combining precise machine work with hand‑finished details for a piece that will stay in your wardrobe for many years.

Materials

• Vintage yarns  (exact fibre mix varies by sourced yarn, always chosen for softness and durability)
• Medium‑weight knit with enough structure to hold the collar and enough drape to wrap comfortably

Design details

Wide shawl with an integrated collar that frames the neck and shoulders

• Knitted in two main pieces on a standard Singer 4.5 mm machine and joined on the machine for a smooth, almost invisible seam
• Collar knitted on by rehanging the joined pieces, creating a generous fold that sits beautifully whether worn open or wrapped
• Designed to sit comfortably over light layers, jackets and winter coats

Fit, size and feel

• One size designed to fit a wide range of bodies
• Wide through the back and shoulders, with the collar providing extra warmth at the neck and chest
• Soft, cosy handle with enough weight to feel secure without being heavy

Approximate dimensions (laid flat):

• Width: (add cm)
• Length: (add cm, excluding collar)

Sustainability and circular design

• Made from carefully sourced vintage and surplus yarns, giving existing materials a second life instead of commissioning new fibre
• Knitted and finished in small batches on the Fleurieu Peninsula, South Australia
• Made to order to reduce overproduction and ensure each shawl has a home
• Designed for longevity, with a classic shape and robust construction that can be repaired and re‑loved over time

How to wear

• Layer over a long‑sleeve tee and jeans for everyday warmth
• Wrap over a dress for evening events instead of a jacket
• Use as a travel companion on flights or long drives, with the collar acting like a built‑in scarf

Care instructions

• Gentle hand wash in cool water with a wool‑safe detergent
• Press out excess water in a towel; dry flat in shade
• Store folded rather than hung to maintain the shape of the collar and body

Where is it made?
Every shawl is designed, knitted and finished on the Fleurieu Peninsula in South Australia.

What makes it sustainable?
Fleurieu Made works with vintage and surplus yarns and produces in small batches, so this shawl uses existing materials and is made locally in a circular, low‑waste way.
