Hello and Welcome
North South Stewart is a seasonal shop rooted in New Zealand and living in Japan — sharing wool, weather, and warmth through the seasons.
Warmth with Soul — New Zealand Wool Accessories for Winter
We sell beautifully made winter accessories crafted from premium New Zealand wool, including merino and possum-merino blends. Our collection features colourful scarves, gloves, hats, socks, and more — all designed to bring natural warmth, long-lasting comfort, and a touch of joy to winter days.
Our products are for people who want to stay warm without bulk, embrace sustainable, natural fibers, and enjoy a little New Zealand magic during the colder months. Made with care and unconditionally loved by our customers, these signature bestsellers exceed all expectations.
We are your cold weather friends
Hello autumn, we're here for you!
We are your cold weather friends but even when the sun is blazing, we are always busy behind the scenes — planning, creating and sharing. Our shop may be seasonal, but our passion for warmth, nature and slow living never takes a break.
Explore our website for year-round inspiration: Wool wisdom and behind-the-scenes stories; New Zealand culture and seasonal ideas; natural ways to stay cozy and well — whatever the weather; outdoor adventures (big and small) that feed the soul.
Whether you're a long-time customer or just discovering us, there’s always something to enjoy — no matter the season.
That said we're SO happy autumn is upon us. What a summer, hey?

The Southern Thread
The Southern Thread is where stories from both hemispheres come together — weaving wool, weather, place, and purpose. From a life in Japan with roots in New Zealand, this journal explores slow living, seasonal rhythms, thoughtful design, and the warmth of natural fibres. It's not just about wool — it's about the threads that connect us.
