One side features a beautiful, full textured stitch, while the other side reveals a refined vertical rib. Simply turn it inside out and your outfit immediately looks different.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe mélange yarn consists of various shades of green, petrol, blue, and small color accents. This gives the sweater great depth and makes it surprisingly easy to combine. For example, it looks truly amazing with the green CABLECORD trousers in BALSAM. Coincidentally, we happen to have those as well. How inconvenient for you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy this reversible sweater is so special\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eWearable on both sides\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eTwo different knit structures: rib and textured stitch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003e77% alpaca and 23% cotton\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eSoft multicolor mélange yarn\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eVoluminous and cozy knit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003ePleasantly warm without feeling heavy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eRegular fit with a straight cut\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eShort stand-up turtleneck\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eFully fashioned knit with minimal cutting waste\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTwo different sides\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOn one side, you see a full, almost grainy knit structure that allows the various colors of the mélange yarn to blend beautifully. If you turn the sweater inside out, a clear vertical rib structure appears. That side looks slightly calmer and longer due to the vertical lines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSo, you don't have to choose which side you like best. One today, the other tomorrow. Or halfway through the day, if you feel like it. We won't stop you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSoft alpaca with cotton\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe sweater consists of 77% alpaca and 23% cotton. Alpaca is light, soft, and temperature-regulating. The fine fibers can hold a lot of air, making the sweater comfortably warm without hanging heavily on your body.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe cotton gives the knit extra stability and makes the material pleasantly breathable. Together, the fibers form a soft, voluminous knit with a light sheen and a vibrant color profile.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAlpaca naturally contains almost no lanolin, but that does not automatically mean that no one can have a reaction to the material. Every skin is different. If you are sensitive to wool or hairy fibers, be sure to come and try on the sweater.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFit and size advice\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe sweater has a regular fit with a straight cut. In principle, choose your usual size. If you want to wear it a bit looser or like to wear a blouse or shirt underneath, you might want to consider a size larger.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe back length in size S, including the stand-up collar, is approximately 63 cm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFully fashioned knit\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe individual parts of this sweater are knitted directly into the correct shape. As a result, less material needs to be trimmed compared to garments cut from larger pieces of fabric. Of course, clothing without any impact doesn't exist, but we certainly think less cutting waste is a good idea.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow to care for this alpaca sweater\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFortunately, you hardly ever need to wash alpaca. Let the sweater air out after wearing it; usually, that is sufficient. Store it flat so that the weight of the knit does not stretch the shoulders.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDoes it need to be washed after all? Wash it carefully by hand in cold to lukewarm water and use a small amount of \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/lanalicious-wasmiddel\"\u003eLanalicious wool detergent with lanolin\u003c\/a\u003e. Do not soak for long, do not rub, and do not wring out. Rinse at the same temperature, gently press the water out of the sweater, and let it dry flat in shape. Do not bleach, do not iron, and definitely do not put it in the dryer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWith a soft and voluminous knit, small pills can form due to friction. This is not a sign of poor quality, but a normal property of fine natural fibers. Remove them carefully with the finest side of the \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/gleener-pluizenkam-voor-het-ontpillen-van-wollen-k\"\u003eGleener fabric shaver\u003c\/a\u003e. Work without pressure and do not go over the same spot endlessly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCan you really wear the sweater on two sides?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The sweater is specially knitted as a reversible model. One side has a full textured stitch and the other side a vertical rib structure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIs this sweater heavy?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eNo. The knit looks full and cozy, but alpaca is a relatively light fiber. The sweater provides plenty of warmth without feeling very heavy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIs the sweater true to size?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eYes, it is a regular fit with a straight cut. In principle, choose your usual size.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCan alpaca pill?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eYes, especially in areas where there is a lot of friction. You can carefully remove small pills with the Gleener.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat should you wear with this green sweater?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe mélange combines beautifully with dark blue, denim, neutrals, brown, and various shades of green. It forms a lovely tone-on-tone set with the corduroy CABLECORD trousers in BALSAM.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCome see both sides in Rotterdam\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIt is difficult to see the difference between the two knit structures perfectly in photos.
