Argyle Cardigan, V-Neck — 95% Merino Wool, 5% Cashmere

Finely brushed, fluffy, cloud-soft. And knitted in intarsia: every block of color on its own yarn, the reverse as clean as the front.

Runs large and loose — take one size down. Dropped shoulder, straight cut, full button placket.

Marlen's note

The argyle or diamond pattern is a beautiful knit motif that never goes out of style. Sometimes it is the top trend, as it is this season; sometimes simply a handsome classic that signals traditional craft from across the room — worked perfectly on our merino-cashmere blend. The V-neck looks cool and urban over a white crewneck tee, smart over a blouse, a little bolder next to the skin. The favorite cardigan I have barely taken off this season.

The silver-grey base tone pairs perfectly with our wide-leg pants — for relaxed, cloud-soft evenings at home.

The pattern is worked in intarsia — every block of color on its own yarn, with no floats on the reverse. Plus 95% merino wool, 5% cashmere, brushed. The brushing lets the edges between the color fields fade out softly.

Frequently asked questions

Which size should I take?
The cardigan runs large. If you normally wear a 38, take a 36 here. Only stay with your usual size if you deliberately want to wear it loose over a sweater.

Does merino wool itch?
Merino is considerably finer than classic virgin wool and lies flatter on the skin. The brushing and the cashmere content make the surface softer still.

Why are the edges of the diamonds not razor-sharp?
Because the yarn is brushed. The raised fibers settle slightly over the color change. With unbrushed yarn the edges stand out more crisply — but the soft handle is missing.
