Castel is based off a traditional Gansey sweater pattern from the 80s. Gansey sweaters were originally designed to protect fishermen from wind and water whilst out at sea. This was done by knitting 5ply yarn on small needles to create a tight, dense fabric. Castel is knit using our traditional 5ply Guernsey yarn.

Let customers speak for us
from 98 reviewsEasy to follow instructions. I made this for my cousin who feels cold round her neck, she loved the pockets.
I made these mitts in the same colour as the beanie to match, I made it for my cousin's wife birthday, and she lived them both.
This hat was easy to make and fun with its points looking like cat ears.
Haven't started the shawl yet but its next in line project wise, I'm going to make it for my mum.
loved this pattern, enough texture to make it interesting and rows and rows of plain knitting ideal for knitting when you're tired, but can't sit idle
They gave me one of the colors I asked for! Thanks guys!!
I love the pattern. Ordering and downloading was easy. I haven’t made it yet, but after reading through the pattern the instructions are clear. For a novice I think it will provide a great learning challenge and enhance my skills as a knitter.
The ordering & download were easy. I haven’t made it yet, but after reading through the pattern it looks well written and presented and easy enough for a relatively novice knitter to understand.
Everything arrived in wonderful shape and was exactly as I hoped it would be. I wasn't surprised -- I've ordered from this organization for years and years.
They arrived in excellent shape and were everything I hoped they would be ! ! !
