Fit and Details
The iconic cable-knit sweater, crafted in a navy blue shade with gray undertones. Knitted in a trellis cable pattern, this turtleneck sweater is finished with ribbed hem and cuffs. It originally dressed Irish fishermen; its twisted shape allowed air and moisture to pass through while keeping its wearer warm. This intensely soft sweater is truly casual armor for the winter season.

The most distinctive characteristic of a ribbed fisherman's sweater is its textured pattern. This pattern is achieved through a combination of ribbing and cable knitting, creating a raised, textured surface. The ribs and cables not only provide a unique aesthetic but also enhance the sweater's warmth and insulation. This turtleneck sweater fits true to size; you can choose your usual size.

Geelong Lambswool
Geelong wool comes from the first shearing of lambs. A natural insulator, it will allow your skin to breathe unlike synthetic fibers. Due to the natural texture of wool, small air pockets form between the fibers that can trap and release heat, allowing the wool to maintain the wearer's body temperature. Naturally stretchy, wool adapts to you and does not retain odors; most of the time, simply airing your sweater after use is sufficient. If you take care of it and wear it intermittently, it will last for many years.

Wonderful and Durable Wool
Wool is a remarkable material that surpasses all synthetic fibers in terms of comfort, health, and durability. The fiber is comfortable because it breathes and naturally regulates temperature. It is hypoallergenic, meaning it is unlikely to cause allergies, and you can wear this turtleneck sweater directly against your bare skin. Wool is 100% natural, renewable, and biodegradable. In short, we could go on and on about the wonderful properties of wool, which by nature is a circular fiber. If you want to make a conscious choice based on sustainable principles, wear natural fibers like wool, which are durable and respectful of your skin and the earth.
