- Is extra-fine merino itchy?
- Extra-fine merino has much finer fibers than standard wool, so it feels soft against skin and is far less prickly. People with sensitive skin generally tolerate it well.
- How should I wash a merino sweater?
- Use a wool or gentle cycle in cool water with a mild detergent, or hand wash. Avoid wringing, reshape and dry flat away from direct heat, and skip the tumble dryer.
- How does merino compare with cashmere?
- Merino is more durable, more breathable and easier to care for than cashmere, and it costs less. Cashmere is softer and lighter but pills more and needs more careful handling.
- What fit is the BRIDGET sweater?
- It has a relaxed straight fit with a clean crew neckline and ribbed trims. It is not oversized, so it sits close enough to layer under a coat.
- Will it pill?
- Fine wool knits can pill where sleeves and sides rub. Remove pills with a fabric comb or sweater stone, and wash less often to slow it down.
- Can I wear it in summer?
- Merino breathes and regulates temperature, so a light crew neck works on cool evenings and in air conditioning. It is warmest as a layer in spring and fall.
