ANUKOO wool sweater GREEN FLOWERS 100% alpaca
A green wool sweater with flowers might sound a bit tame. Until you see this one. The ANUKOO wool sweater GREEN FLOWERS is knitted from 100% alpaca and features a stunning knit-in floral pattern in orange, pink, and warm red. So, no printed flowers: the pattern is a genuine part of the knit and runs across both the front and the back.
The calm green background keeps the colors beautifully balanced, making the sweater expressive without being loud. And it feels wonderfully soft, too. It’s the kind of sweater that makes people say how lovely it is, only to then ask permission to feel your sleeve.

A knit-in floral pattern, not a print
The floral pattern of GREEN FLOWERS is not printed onto the sweater but incorporated into the design during the knitting process. This gives the flowers the same beautiful texture as the rest of the sweater. The long flower stems and leaves give the pattern a graphic and modern look, while the various warm colors stand out beautifully against the green.
And the best part: the flowers aren’t just on the front. The back is fully included as well. Finally, a sweater that looks just as lovely from behind as it does from the front.
How does the ANUKOO sweater GREEN FLOWERS fit?
The sweater has a comfortable, straight fit and does not cling to the body. In the photos, I am wearing size L. With my size 40, this provides plenty of room to move comfortably without the sweater becoming overly oversized.
The length hits nicely at the hip, making it easy to combine with jeans, a skirt, or high-waisted trousers. In the photos, you can see it worn both loose and with a small tuck at the front. The latter adds a bit more shape without having to tuck in half the sweater.
Why is alpaca so great for a sweater?
Alpaca wool is warm but surprisingly lightweight. This keeps GREEN FLOWERS cozy without the sweater feeling heavy. The knit feels soft and supple and is perfect for days when you want warmth without needing five layers of clothing.
Alpaca naturally contains no lanolin. This can be an advantage for people who are sensitive or allergic to lanolin. Whether or not alpaca feels itchy on your skin remains a personal matter. Many people find it wonderfully soft, but if you have very sensitive skin, you can always wear a thin camisole or shirt underneath.
How to care for a 100% alpaca sweater
Wash this alpaca sweater as little as possible. Simply letting it air out is often enough. Preferably store it folded so that the knit does not stretch out under its own weight on a hanger.
Does GREEN FLOWERS need to be washed? Use a cold or gentle wool wash program at a maximum of 30 degrees and select a low spin speed. Preferably wash alpaca with a special detergent without lanolin, such as Washpaca detergent for alpaca. Alpaca does not naturally contain lanolin, so it does not require this addition.
Do not use regular detergent or fabric softener and never put the sweater in the dryer. Gently reshape it after washing and let it dry flat.
