About The Faraway Gang

 

 

Sally Jackson in her Maidenhead studio.

 

The journey since 2018 has taught us that these garments truly do tell stories of adventure, with many pieces now living their second or third life through the Pre-loved Collection – a natural extension of the brand's ethos that clothes should and can be treasured and enjoyed for years, not just seasons.

Founder Sally Jackson's 25+ years as a knitwear designer have reinforced her belief in the importance of clothes having a real end use.  Each piece is consciously made with natural fibres and the collections are designed with longevity at its heart. Colourful nostalgic patterns with a contemporary twist continue to underpin this unisex collection which has evolved to include a new collection of knitting patterns so customers can make the designs themselves.

"By making instead of mass-producing, we are embracing a slower, more sustainable way of dressing the family. And a handmade jumper? It’s more than clothing, it’s a keepsake, an heirloom, a story passed down with pride and stitches full of love.  I believe clothing should tell a story, and what better story than one you’ve made yourself? Every stitch holds your time, your energy, and your creativity. I believe this to be incredibly special."
