Pien, lambswool throw
Pien Plaid made from Kempisch Heath Sheep Wool
The Pien is a plaid available in two qualities: Kempisch Heath Sheep and Dutch Merino. This Pien is largely made from lamb's wool from the Kempisch Heath Sheep. The wool is collected from the landscape management company De Wassum. The wool of the Kempisch Heath Sheep is considered a waste product in the Netherlands, but The Knitwit Stable is able to use and process it into high-quality products.
All our products are developed and knitted in our mini-factory in Baambrugge.

Origin
Where the wool begins.
Our wool originates in the Dutch landscape.
Wind, rain, and open land shape the fiber even before a thread is spun.
Fiber
The nature of wool
After shearing, the wool is carefully selected.
The properties of the fiber ultimately determine the structure, warmth, and feel of the knit.
yarn
The foundation of every knit.
The wool is spun into yarn.
This forms the basis for a knit that combines strength, softness, and resilience.
Knit
Designed from wool.
Only now does the wool take its shape. Not the other way around. The properties of the yarn determine how the knit feels, wears, and protects.
Many years of experience
Built to last.
A good knit gets better with every wear. Designed to be a staple in your wardrobe, season after season.
