This flutter cardigan is an essential layering piece for anyone who appreciates natural materials, fine craftsmanship, and effortless chic. Knitted from exquisitely soft, premium merino wool, it drapes lightly over the body, flowing beautifully and adding a gentle, feminine touch to any outfit. The finely ribbed sleeves that end at the elbows and the open front create an elegant, natural silhouette — perfect for layering in any season.
What Makes Merino Wool So Special
This cardigan is made from fine merino lambswool — one of the most luxurious natural fibers in the world.
The yarn is spun and dyed in a traditional Scottish mill that also processes high-quality cashmere. There, the raw wool is still sorted by hand, ensuring that only the finest, softest, and most exceptional fibers are selected.
This special merino lambswool is distinguished by its very fine micron count, which gives it its exceptional softness and premium quality. The yarn is pleasantly lightweight yet retains the full insulating properties of wool, with a naturally airy loft.
Many shades are mélange colors: the fibers are dyed in five to six subtle tones before spinning, resulting in a deep, lively, and timeless color expression with beautiful dimension.
The raw wool comes from ethically certified, mulesing-free farms in South Africa, where merino sheep thrive in warm, dry conditions.
Thanks to its natural properties, merino wool is:
-
ultra soft & non-itchy — ideal for sensitive skin
-
temperature-regulating — warm in the cold, cooling in heat
-
breathable & moisture-wicking
-
naturally antibacterial — rarely needs washing
-
lightweight, durable & shape-retaining
A fiber that unites luxury, nature, and function in the most beautiful way.
