The \u003cstrong\u003eFISHERMAN OUT OF IRELAND YUSUF CRANBERRY\u003c\/strong\u003e is a warm, classic men's sweater made of \u003cstrong\u003e100% pure Donegal Fleck merino wool\u003c\/strong\u003e. The deep cranberry color is built up from various shades of red and burgundy, featuring the small colored flecks so characteristic of Donegal yarn.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eYUSUF has a crew neck, a regular fit, and ribbed panels along the sides. This rib structure gives the otherwise understated design just a little extra detail and ensures the sweater hangs nicely. Timeless enough to wear for years, yet definitely not so sensible that you'll suddenly find yourself yearning for a pair of beige slacks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy YUSUF is such a great wool sweater\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eMade from 100% pure merino wool\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eMulesing-free wool\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eCharacteristic speckled Donegal yarn\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eDeep cranberry red color\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eCrew neck with ribbed trim\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eRibbed panels along the sides\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eRibbed cuffs at the sleeves and hem\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eComfortable raglan sleeves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eRegular men's fit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eFits true to size\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eWarm, breathable, and temperature-regulating\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eMade in Ireland\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCRANBERRY: deep red with colored flecks\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe color \u003cstrong\u003eCRANBERRY\u003c\/strong\u003e is a deep, warm shade of red that leans towards burgundy. It’s not a bright signal red, nor is it a dark shade that looks almost black. It sits perfectly in between: striking enough to add something to your outfit, but understated enough to be very easy to combine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSmall lighter and darker fibers are incorporated into the Donegal yarn. From a distance, you mainly see the rich cranberry color; up close, you’ll discover red, pink, blue, and natural-colored flecks. These add depth to the knit and ensure the sweater never looks completely solid.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWear YUSUF with dark or light blue jeans, anthracite-colored wool trousers, brown corduroys, or a sturdy pair of chinos. The color also combines beautifully with a blue shirt underneath. We see the latter in the photo and can highly recommend it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat are ribbed side panels?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA vertically ribbed knit runs along the sides of the YUSUF. These panels give the sweater extra structure and form a beautiful contrast with the smoother knit of the front and back. It is a subtle detail that you might not notice immediately from a distance, but one that makes the sweater look more attractive and interesting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFurthermore, the rib structure can move a little. This makes the YUSUF comfortable to wear and ensures the straight design hangs nicely along the body. No complicated construction or busy pattern, just quality knitwear in exactly the right place.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow does the FISHERMAN YUSUF fit?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eYUSUF has a regular men's fit and fits true to size. Therefore, you should generally choose the size you usually wear. The sweater fits nicely without being tight and offers enough room for a thin shirt or collared shirt underneath.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe raglan sleeves run diagonally across the shoulders from the neck. This allows the shoulders to hang smoothly and provides plenty of freedom of movement. The ribbed trim at the neck, sleeves, and hem gives the model a classic finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDo you prefer your sweaters roomy, or do you want to wear a thicker layer underneath? Then you might consider a size up. If you are between two sizes, please contact us or come and try on the YUSUF in Rotterdam.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003ePure merino wool with a genuine wool feel\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis Fisherman sweater is made of \u003cstrong\u003e100% pure merino wool\u003c\/strong\u003e, without the addition of synthetic fibers. Merino wool retains body heat well while simultaneously being breathable and moisture-wicking. This makes YUSUF pleasant on cold days, both outdoors and indoors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe wool is mulesing-free. Mulesing is a painful procedure in which skin is removed from around the sheep's hindquarters to prevent issues with fly larvae. This treatment has not been used for this merino wool.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAlthough merino wool generally feels softer than many other types of wool, the perception of wool is personal. Are you very sensitive? Wear a thin shirt made of wool and silk or cotton underneath. This way, you can enjoy the warmth of the sweater without the wool being in direct contact with your skin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat does Donegal Fleck mean?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDonegal Fleck refers to the typical speckled yarn that Irish knitwear is famous for. During the spinning process, small fibers in different colors are added to the wool. This creates a vibrant, mottled surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe flecks are not fluff, stains, or irregularities. They are part of the material and add depth to every color. In CRANBERRY, you can see them especially well because the light, blue, and pink fibers contrast against the deep red base.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eNo single thread is exactly the same. That artisanal character is exactly why we love Donegal wool. You can buy a completely smooth, perfectly uniform sweater just about anywhere. This one, you can't.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat should you do if the sweater starts to pill?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEven high-quality merino wool can pill slightly at first. Movement and friction cause loose fibers to come to the surface. You will usually see this first under the arms, along the sides, or in places where a jacket or bag rubs against the sweater.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDo not pull the fuzz off with your fingers. Doing so can pull new fibers out of the knit and cause more pilling. Instead, use a \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.natur-el.nl\/gleener-pluizenkam-voor-het-ontpillen-van-wollen-k.html\"\u003eGleener fabric shaver\u003c\/a\u003e. This allows you to remove the loose fibers gently. After a few treatments, the pilling usually subsides on its own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow to care for your YUSUF\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFortunately, you don't need to wash a wool sweater after every wear. First, hang the YUSUF outside or near an open window overnight. Wool is less prone to absorbing odors and, after proper airing, is often fresh enough to wear again.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIf the sweater does need washing, use a reliable cold wool wash cycle and a small amount of \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.natur-el.nl\/lanalicious-wasmiddel.html\"\u003eLanalicious wool detergent\u003c\/a\u003e. Do not rub, do not wring, and do not put it in the dryer. Gently pull the damp sweater back into shape and let it dry flat on a towel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePreferably store the YUSUF folded in your closet. The weight of the wool can stretch the sweater at the shoulders or in length if left on a hanger.

The yarn contains small flecks in various lighter and darker colors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does the sweater fit?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eYUSUF has a regular men's fit and fits true to size. Therefore, you should generally choose your usual size.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is special about the sides?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eVertically ribbed panels run along both sides. These give the sweater extra structure and ensure the knit moves comfortably with you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIs the merino wool mulesing-free?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The merino wool that Fisherman Out of Ireland uses for this sweater is mulesing-free.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIs this wool sweater itchy?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMerino wool generally feels softer than many other types of wool, but every skin is different. If you are sensitive to wool, wear a thin shirt underneath or come and try the sweater on with us first.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCan YUSUF be machine washed?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOnly on a reliable cold wool wash cycle and with special wool detergent.
