Alpaca wool nylon marble buttoned V neck bicolor trim cable knitted cardigan

Materials

• Fabric: A rich blend of 10% Alpaca, 40% Wool, and 50% Acrylic.

• Texture: The alpaca provides a luxurious, fuzzy softness, while the wool adds structural bounce and warmth. The addition of high-quality acrylic ensures the knit remains lightweight and durable.

Design Details:

• Intricate Cable Knit: Classic vertical rope and diamond cable patterns provide a rich, three-dimensional texture.

• Marble-Effect Buttons: Custom oversized buttons with a polished, marbled finish add a sophisticated, modern focal point.

• Deep V-Neckline: A classic cut that allows for versatile layering over shirts or lightweight turtlenecks.

Construction:

• Relaxed Oversized Fit: Designed with a generous silhouette and dropped shoulders for a cozy, effortless feel.

• Thick Ribbed Trim: Chunky ribbing at the cuffs and hem helps retain heat and maintain the cardigan's structural shape.

• The Wash: Hand wash cold using a mild wool-safe detergent. Avoid rubbing or agitating the fibers, which can cause pilling or felting of the alpaca and wool content.

• The Dry: Gently squeeze out excess water between two towels—never wring. Lay flat to dry on a mesh rack in a shaded area to prevent the heavy wet knit from stretching.

• The Maintenance: Use a specialized wool comb or fabric shaver to gently remove any surface pilling that may occur over time. Store folded in a cool, dry place; hanging will cause the shoulders to distort. 

This cardigan is a masterclass in texture-driven outfitting. For a sophisticated daytime ensemble, layer it over the Embroidered Pure Linen Mid-Length Shirt in Optic White. The contrast between the chunky, fuzzy alpaca knit and the crisp, embroidered linen creates a high-end, multidimensional look.

To balance the voluminous silhouette of the knitwear, pair it with the Contour-Stitched Striped Cotton Tapered Pants. The vertical pinstripes of the pants provide a sharp, linear counterpoint to the organic curves of the cable knit. Finish the outfit with the Ribbon Oil-Waxed Lambskin Square-Toe Loafers to ground the look with a touch of architectural structure and a polished, high-shine finish.
