An innovative vision
Our founder, Mr James C. McGeorge, was a visionary man who made his dream come true: from his family tiny knitting workshop in Dumfries, to the revolutionary farm employing women for the first time, up to the mill producing high quality cachmere, shetland and cotton sweaters.

A knitting workshop in the community for the community
McGeorge of Scotland has been a pioneer in developing innovative techniques - and still is (green by ancient vocation!) - never forgetting its tradition of top handmade knitwear. Firmly rooted in our unique heritage, today we combine contemporary know-how and style with the ancient hand-knitted intarsia. To produce our high quality garments, we work following the traditional methods and rituals of old Scotland: charmant cashmere knitted on hand frames
