Winter Layering - FAQ

What pieces are included in the Winter Layering collection?

This collection features cardigans and sweaters made from cashmere and merino wool, designed specifically for layering through cooler months. You'll find both lightweight pieces for transitional weather and heavier, snugger knits for the coldest part of winter.

How do I layer these knits with my linen pieces?

Our cardigans and lightweight knits are designed to pair easily over linen tops, dresses or shirts, adding warmth without bulk during cooler mornings and evenings. This lets you extend the wear of your warm-weather linen pieces into the transitional and cooler months.

What's the difference between cashmere and merino wool for layering?

Cashmere offers an exceptionally soft, lightweight warmth, while our extra-fine merino wool is finer and softer than standard wool, with natural odour resistance and breathability. Both work well for layering, cashmere leans slightly more luxurious, while merino is a practical, durable everyday choice.

Are these knits suitable for very cold weather?

Yes, the snugger sweater styles in this collection offer solid warmth for cold winter days, while the lighter cardigans suit milder transitional weather. Layer a cardigan over a merino sweater for extra warmth on the coldest days, or wear pieces individually as temperatures allow.

How should I care for cashmere and merino wool knitwear?

Hand wash in cold water with a wool-specific detergent, or dry clean if preferred, and always dry flat away from direct heat. Avoid wringing wet knitwear, as this can stretch the fibres, and store folded rather than on a hanger to help the piece keep its shape.
