Strathberry Cashmere: The Westray Collection Guide (Made in Scotland)

Quick answer: Yes. Westray is the name of Strathberry’s cashmere line, and every Westray piece, the travel wrap, bandana, ribbed beanie, headband, gloves and fingerless gloves, is 100 per cent cashmere knitted in Scotland; the brand describes the yarn as responsibly sourced. At Luxury Handbags the line runs from $240 for the fingerless gloves to $530 for the travel wrap, in Oat, Pebble, Otter, Black and Burgundy. The lambswool Cable Knit beanie and scarf are made in Scotland too, and the yak and cashmere Portobello pieces in the UK.

Strathberry is a bag house, and most people meet it through the Music Bar. The cashmere is the part of the range that surprises them. It is knitted in Scotland, which is where the country’s cashmere has been spun and knitted for two centuries, it is priced within reach, and it is designed to sit beside the bags: the palette is the bag palette, Oat and Otter and Burgundy, and the small leather logo patch on each piece is the same leather as the Mosaic. This is a guide to the whole collection as it lands for autumn 2026.

Is Strathberry cashmere really made in Scotland?

Yes, and the brand says so on every Westray product page: handcrafted in Scotland. That matters for two reasons. First, it is the same origin as the country’s oldest cashmere houses, so the knitting and finishing sit in the same tradition. Second, it is consistent with how Strathberry is run: the bags are designed in Edinburgh and handcrafted in Spain, the silks are printed in Macclesfield with the house’s UK silk partner Adamley, and the knitwear is kept at home. Strathberry describes the cashmere yarn as responsibly sourced; it does not publish the spinner, so I will not name one.

The Westray collection, piece by piece

The lambswool and yak pieces

Two families sit beside the Westray cashmere. The Cable Knit Beanie and Cable Knit Scarf are 100 per cent lambswool, knitted in Scotland in a chunky cable in Hazelnut, at $270 and $470; lambswool is springier than cashmere and takes a cable better, which is why the house used it here. The Portobello pieces are a brushed 90 per cent yak, 10 per cent cashmere blend made in the UK: the Portobello Cardigan with Music Bar buttons, the Portobello Beanie in black marl, and the wrist warmer that clips onto the leather Portobello Gloves. Yak down is warmer than sheep’s wool for its weight and a little coarser than cashmere, so the blend gives warmth without the price of pure cashmere.

How to wear Strathberry cashmere with the bags

Keep it tonal. Oat and Pebble cashmere against a Tan and a Sand bag, Otter against Chocolate and Espresso, Burgundy against Burgundy, Black against everything. The travel wrap is the piece that does the most: it is a scarf on the way to work, a shawl at dinner and a blanket on the plane, and it folds flat into a Kite Tote. The beanie and gloves in the same shade make the gift set Strathberry itself sells; the fingerless gloves are for anyone who works in a cold building.

How to care for it

Follow the care label on each piece; Strathberry asks that its cashmere be washed as the label directs and dry cleaned where the label says so. Between wears, fold rather than hang, store with cedar against moths, and lift any pilling gently with a cashmere comb. Pilling in the first weeks is normal on a soft long-fibre cashmere and stops once the loose fibres have gone.

Is Strathberry cashmere good value?

For a Scottish-knitted 100 per cent cashmere, yes. The travel wrap at $530 is the piece to judge it by: it is a full wrap, not a scarf, and it is knitted where the best of the fibre has always been knitted. The gloves and beanie under $300 are the easy way in. If you want the heaviest two-ply cashmere made, the specialist mills still lead; if you want a well-made Scottish cashmere that matches your bag, this is it.
