How to choose a women's cashmere sweater
Start with the thickness of the knit, as it decides when you will wear your sweater. Our Malmö knit is fine and light, made for mild days and for layering under a coat. Our Stockholm knit is made from a generous 2-ply cashmere yarn, soft and warm enough for the whole winter. For the coldest days, some of our sweaters are knitted with 4-ply of this quality for a dense, cocooning knit. The gauge, meaning the number of needles per inch on the knitting machine, completes the picture: gauge 5 for our chunky 4-ply knits, gauge 7 for the 2-ply Stockholm knit, gauge 12 for the Malmö knit, and gauge 16 for our finest knits, in cashmere and silk.
Neckline and knit style
The crew neck is the most versatile and goes with everything. The V-neck lengthens the silhouette and sits well over a shirt collar. The turtleneck or the funnel neck keeps the neck warm and replaces a scarf on cold days. You will also find polo collars and zipped trucker collars, as well as textured knits: cables, jacquard or chunky knit.
Fit and length
Some of our sweaters are cut close to the body, others are straight or designed oversize, and several styles are unisex. Cropped styles stop at the waist and pair well with high-waisted trousers. Classic lengths cover the hips. On every product page, the size chart and the "What's my size?" tool recommend a size from your measurements.
What to wear with a cashmere sweater
For everyday, a cashmere sweater goes with straight jeans or tailored trousers. For a dressier look, slip a cotton shirt underneath with the collar showing, or pair it with a knitted skirt in the same color. In winter, a fine sweater layers under a coat, and a thick one replaces a jacket.
