About Robert Mackie

Robert Mackie has been making wool accessories in Scotland since 1845, from its mill in Stewarton, Ayrshire. The company knits hats, scarves and gloves using fine natural yarns from leading spinners, and works to ethical, sustainable manufacturing standards, holding ISO 9001 certification for quality. As well as its own line, Robert Mackie produces accessories for other knitwear labels, including ERIBÉ and Orla Kiely, who have visited the mill to see pieces made. Recent collections have brought back tartan berets, reworking the traditional Tam O'Shanter with a contemporary Scottish twist. The company was recently acquired by director Graeme Haddow from the Mackie family, keeping its established manufacturing approach intact.
