This design is named after Loch Morar, a remote and beautiful spot just inland from the Morar beaches in Scotland, where I spent two weeks over the summer, getting inspiration for new designs, and walking in the hills.

It is a generous fit, and a simple shape, with drop shoulders and a chunky button band.
