J is for Jerseys: The Wool Company

Excited with our special purchases.
Four years ago Fred and I landed in Auckland to spend 2 months in New Zealand following the RWC 2011.

We collected our camper van and started to make our way to Wellington to watch the Springbok's opening game.

After the first day we realised that we were ill equipped for the cold, even though it was spring. So our first shopping spree was at The Wool Company, in Utiku along the State Highway 1, and they stock gorgeous wool clothing.

I have loved my black mohair and possum jersey coat purchase ever since.

So today I returned and had one of those 'who would have thought moments', here I was again, this time with Shawni, both of us shopping for the same jersey, this time I bought one in navy and she in black.

Even in the New Zealand summer, the jerseys will come in handy.
