Cashmere knitwear should sit under a jacket without announcing itself. Ours is knitted on a fine twelve-gauge frame in pure cashmere, with seams linked stitch by stitch by hand, and cut close without holding on.
Knitted close and finished slowly, a jumper keeps its shape at the cuff and its softness at the neck through years of wear rather than a single season. The weight is deliberate: warm enough to wear alone at a desk, fine enough to go under a jacket without breaking the shoulder line or gathering at the cuff.
A linked seam joins two pieces of knit stitch for stitch, so the join has the same give as the fabric either side of it. It is slower than overlocking, and it is the reason the shoulders hold their line after a year on a hanger. The cardigans are made with a fine placket so the front sits flat when it is left open.
Round-neck and V-neck jumpers, cardigans cut to the same close line, and a roll neck for the coldest weeks. The V takes a shirt and tie beneath it and is the one for the office; the round neck is the plainer of the two and the easier to wear alone. Colours run from black, grey and navy through to beige and lilac. Add a cashmere scarf for a second layer when the weather turns.
