Very Nice

The scarf was much nicer than expected, suburb quality and workmanship and an item that will become an heirloom.

Light and smooth

Just received my new slender scarf and it is exactly as I expected. Wonderful brown color, very fine, delicate fabric and so smooth that I won’t to take it off anymore.

Luxurious!

I learned about Prickly Thistle in my Wee Box this month, so I went to the website and purchased the Elements Slender Scarf. This is a magnificent piece of clothing. I live in Michigan, USA, where it is cold six months of the year. This beautiful scarf will keep me toasty warm all winter long and it looks fabulous. In addition, it is a symbol of my Scottish ancestry and makes me feel like a bad ass rebel when I wear it. I'm in love!

What can I say! Beautiful product, wool is lovely and soft, beautifully presented with coat hanger and cute tote bag as an extra surprise. Did run a wee bit smaller than expecting so I am planning to have someone measure me rather than DIY next time. Customer service were beyond lovely. Thank you team Prickly x

Epic

I knew I would be visiting Prickly Thistle while we were in Scotland on honeymoon. The difficult decision was...what do I get. The coat is amazing. Color is very me. The whole experience was fun and brings a smile to my face whenever I reminisce. And I might has scared the DHL driver for life when it was delivered 🤷‍♀️❤️

Coat

When I received my coat I loved it even more than I had expected. The touch of the fabric is fabulous and every time you put it on it looks a bit different because of its versatility. It’s just wonderful. I also love the style of the pocket. Even the packaging is high class. I love all the little extra useful things in the box. And thanks for the personalised help with my measurements, given I am a wee lass. Highly recommend!

"The One" Belt

Style, Craft, and Passion Combined

We met Clare at a pop up this morning and have been so inspired by the pieces we purchased. The quality is incredible and the passion behind the mission shows through in all aspects. As a woman working in a male dominated, yet sustainably minded, industry I say HECK YES to this bad ass team.

My new favorite hat

I absolutely love my Highland Woolly Hat! The merino wool is high quality, very soft, and well made. I am so excited to wear it with my scarf (you know that one made by prickly thistle but sold by our favorite outlander hunk) anyway the reds coordinate perfectly and I am just thrilled. Thank you for the hard work and love that goes into every piece you all make, the superior quality shows!

Visit to Prickly Thistle Mill Confirms They Rock!

I have followed Prickly Thistle and purchased many of their items, never thinking that I would ever actually get to visit the store beyond my virtual encounters. Clare and her team are true revolutionaries. They weave their magical tartan patterns and create clothing that reflects their values in being a sustainable, local enterprise that seeks to create clothing that is not only beautiful and long lasting and at the same time they seek to not be wasteful of the material when they design their creations. My next purchase is going to be a beautiful coat. I can hardly wait. Seeing how the mill works and the magic they weave in person was a thrill.

I am a rebel when I have my Prickly on!!

Let me first start out by saying, I love this shirt! The shirt is great alone or layered with other things in my closet and pairs nicely with jeans or a pair of shorts. I will be rewearing it forever! The weight of the wool fabric is light enough to wear in the spring down here in the south (USA). It’s not my first Prickly item and it certainly will not be my last. I’m so happy with my purchase! Thanks Prickly Thistle!!

LAST Coorie Cloud Slender Scarf

Highly recommend this tour

We booked a tour while on a trip to Scotland last month. We had a fascinating tour. It was not only interesting, but heartwarming to see a firm dedicated to the motto „People and planet before profit“ and truly interested in making a difference in the community. We got to see every part of the manufacturing process from yarn to finished garments. We take so much for granted and it was a real eye-opener seeing how much work goes into a tartan weave before an inch of material comes off the loom. We were able to see everything up close and ask as many questions as we wanted. It was a real pleasure to meet Clare and the team. Highly recommend.

Mill Tour

A small piece of wonderfulness

Wearing something made with such care and intention is a privilege. Add that it also looks great, goes with everything, keeps my neck warm and is easy to throw in my bag in case the weather gets cool, and I couldn’t be happier.
