Alpaca jumper with striped cuff

A delightfully soft sweater knitted in finest quality pure 100% alpaca fibre. A beautiful fit, it skims the waist so is not too close fitting, and finishes on the hips. The crew neck is not too tight a fit around the neck, we think we've made it just right!

Alpaca is four times warmer than lambswool and it doesn't pill (bobble), so you will find this sweater looks good for ages.

This jumper is fairly lightweight rather than very chunky and thick, but it is so very warm. Alpaca allows the skin to breathe and wicks away moisture.

Alpaca is one of the finest and most luxurious fibres in the world. It is known for its softness, warmth, sheen, lightweightedness and durability – it won’t pill and will last much longer than synthetic, man made fibres. It is hypo-allergenic, naturally fire retardant  and eco-friendly (both the fibre and the way in which the alpacas are raised are less damaging to the environment than competing materials).

WASHING:  Hand wash in lukewarm water with gentle detergent suitable for woollens. You will find this jumper does not need to be washed as often as synthetic materials as the fibre naturally repels dirt and moisture and does not soak up spills and odours. Do not tumble dry, lie flat to dry.

This will quickly become your favourite jumper to pull on when it's chilly outside! Treat yourself to a touch of luxury for the cold winter months.
