OTTO & SPIKE - LAMBSWOOL FIXED BEANIE

Australian lambswool
One size -  21cm x 20cm

We had a beanie that we used to sell, it was pretty good, people knew it well. We sold the beanie here and there we even sold it at the fair. Then one day the beanie machine broke, we had to call in our reliable fix it bloke. He poked and prodded, wrenched and hammered. Then in his nervous gruff voice he stammered; ‘This machine I now declare is fine, so it’s back to beanie making time. The beanie is ‘Fixed’ no clever tricks. 

Made in Melbourne from premium Australian Lambswool.

OTTO & SPIKE | Melbourne, Australia

Otto and Spike have been knitting beautiful Australian Extra Fine Merino & pure lambs wool in Brunswick, Melbourne for the last 50 years. They admire well made, well-designed knitwear, that you’ll love to wear on your head, around your neck and out on the town. Through the hard times, as many knitters were forced to close their doors and production moved offshore, Otto and Spike accumulated an abundance of surplus yarn that would have otherwise contributed to our countries landfill. With some careful planning they were able to integrate these yarns into their ranges. As well as taking great care with their choices of yarn, each of their machines has a special role in the making and creating of our knitted pieces. Otto and Spike have an amazing collection of knitting machinery, enough to document the last century of knitted history.
