Duchess Kate paired the $389 cream sweater by Brora x Troy London with skinny jeans, leather boots and a Seeland shooting jacket for the Cambridges’ visit to Manor Farm in Durham. The designer’s website says the sweater’s pattern is Icelandic-inspired and that it’s made with superfine lambswool. Fair Isle is a traditional knitting technique that originated in Scotland’s Shetland Islands. The lambswool sweater was totes appropriate for her visit to the farm, which involved the duchess and her husband Prince William taking a lamb for a walk and riding in a self-driving tractor. They had the chance to learn about the farm’s sustainable practices, and sat in a socially-distanced ring of hay bales while they listened to farmers chat about how they’ve been affected by COVID. Manor Farm has been passed through five generations of the same family. Afterwards, Kate and William made a visit to the Cheesy Waffles Project at Durham community centre, which supports both young people and adults up to the age of 35 with additional needs and helps them “transition into adulthood” with “self-awareness and independence.” The Cheesy Waffles Project is supported by one of the 26 charities that the duke and duchess asked people to donate in lieu of wedding gifts back when they got married in 2011. By the way—their ten-year wedding anniversary is tomorrow! Can you believe it’s been a decade already? We’re in shock.
