- Is it really 100% cashmere?
- Yes, the sweater is listed as pure cashmere with no wool or synthetic content. That makes it softer and lighter than blended knits, but also less durable under friction.
- How does a Perkins neck differ from a turtleneck?
- A Perkins neck is a high stand collar that does not fold over, so it sits closer to a crew than a true turtleneck. It gives coverage at the throat without the tight roll.
- How should I wash it?
- Hand wash in cool water with a cashmere shampoo, or dry clean. Do not machine wash or tumble dry; heat and agitation cause shrinkage and pilling.
- Does it run true to size?
- It is a straight fit, so it runs true to size but with room through the body. Size down if you want a closer silhouette.
- Can I wear it under a blazer?
- Yes. The fine gauge keeps it from bunching at the shoulders, and the high collar works well with an open jacket.
- Will it pill?
- Some pilling is normal for fine cashmere. Remove pills with a fabric comb and give the sweater a rest between wears to limit it.
