Is it really 100% cashmere?

Yes. The sweater is made from 100% cashmere in a lightweight knit, with no wool or synthetic blend listed.

It is a lightweight knit, so it works as a layer over a tee or under a jacket. On its own it suits mild weather rather than deep cold.

Cashmere this thin can pill where it rubs, such as under the arms and at the cuffs. A fabric comb removes the pills, and washing inside out helps.

How should I wash it?

Hand wash in cool water with a cashmere shampoo, press out the water without wringing, and dry flat. Dry cleaning also works.

It has a classic fit and length with ribbing through the body, so it sits close without being tight. Size up if you want a looser layer.

How does it compare with a cashmere blend?

Pure cashmere is softer and warmer for its weight than a wool or synthetic blend, but it is more delicate and needs gentler care.

Our take on the Lightweight Cashmere Ribbed Sweater

A 100% cashmere crewneck sweater with a classic fit and length, wide ribbing through the body and finely ribbed trim. The lightweight knit makes it a layering piece rather than a heavy winter sweater. It suits shoppers who want genuine cashmere in a simple, versatile shape. Against blended or merino rivals it offers more warmth per ounce and a softer hand, but the thin knit shows wear faster and needs careful washing.
