Description

Chunky knit wool sweater hand knitted from soft Italian extra-fine merino wool. This oversized cropped sweater has long relaxed sleeves, chunky ribbed trims and a bold handmade texture.

This sweater is now available with custom neckline and knit pattern options. The main samples in blue and green show the original Moss / Seed Stitch version with a Simple Round Neck. You can also choose a Ribbed Crew Neck, Ribbed Turtleneck or Wide Cowl Neck.

The fit, sleeve shape, cropped length and chunky ribbed hem and cuffs remain the same for all versions — only the neckline and main knit pattern change.

Neckline options:
  • Simple Round Neck (as shown) - a clean, simple neckline without a separate ribbed collar, shown on the knitted sweaters in blue and green.
  • Ribbed Crew Neck - a classic round neckline finished with chunky ribbing.
  • Ribbed Turtleneck - a warm high collar with a folded ribbed neck.
  • Wide Cowl Neck - a high, wide and relaxed neckline with a sculptural look.
Knit pattern options:
  • Moss / Seed Stitch (as shown) - the original textured version shown in the main photos.
  • Stockinette Stitch - a smoother, cleaner knit with a more minimal look.
  • Garter Stitch - a cozy textured knit with soft horizontal ridges.

The stitch sample photo shows the available knit pattern options, so you can choose the texture that feels most like your style.

You can choose this sweater in one solid merino color or in a melange color mix. The Moss / Seed Stitch texture works especially well with melange yarn, creating a rich, dimensional surface where several shades blend naturally together.

Yarn Details
Yarn Details

Our chunky yarn is 100% handmade. It is hand-spun from 100% extra fine merino wool 18,5 microns from Italy. It is the best and premium merino quality in a market known for its extra softness and silkiness. It is a single ply, popular roving type yarn with a slight twist. Merino yarn goes through all necessary stages from fiber preparation to a spinning on a spinning wheel and washing to make lightly felted. This helps to fix the form of the yarn and get smooth textured surface with a unique look and soft feel. It allows knitwear to be more practical, helps to prevent pilling and shedding.

Care
  • Professional dry cleaning once a season is recommended.
  • For everyday care, gently air the jumper after wearing and store it folded, not hanging, to help keep its shape.
  • A fabric shaver is recommended to gently refresh the surface when light pilling appears. This is normal for soft natural merino wool, especially in areas of friction such as the sleeves, sides and underarms. Regular gentle shaving helps keep the sweater looking neat, clean and well maintained.
  • Gentle hand washing in cool water is possible if needed. Use a mild wool detergent. Do not rub, twist or agitate the jumper. Gently press out excess water in a towel and lay flat to dry. Please note that chunky wool becomes heavy when wet.
  • Machine washing is possible only on a very gentle wool cycle in cool water, with low or no spin. It may change the original look and feel of the yarn: the stitches may become more compact, and the jumper may lose some of its soft chunky volume. For best results, professional dry cleaning or gentle hand washing is recommended.
  • Do not bleach, tumble dry or use fabric softener.
