Farah Matson Lambswool Knit Quarter Zip Top - Red - L

Lambswool is the fiber obtained from a sheep's first shearing. It's prized for its softness, warmth, breathability, and natural elasticity, making it an excellent material for knitwear.

The regular fit is standard. While the material has some natural give, significant alterations should be handled by a professional tailor. For minor adjustments, consider layering options.

While lambswool is breathable, it is primarily designed for insulation. It might be too warm for very hot weather, but its breathability makes it suitable for spring or autumn, or as a layer in summer evenings.

Store the top folded in a cool, dry place. To protect it from moths, you can use cedar blocks or sachets. Avoid hanging it for long periods, as this can cause stretching.

This top has a classic, simple design that leans towards smart-casual wear. It can be dressed up slightly with smart trousers and shoes, but it is not typically considered formal attire.

The quarter-zip allows you to easily regulate your temperature. Zip it up for more warmth and coverage, or unzip it partially or fully for increased ventilation when you're feeling too warm.

Lambswool can sometimes feel slightly coarse initially. Wear it with a base layer underneath or try washing it with a wool-specific conditioner to soften the fibers.

Pilling is natural for knitted wool garments. Gently remove pills with a fabric shaver or by hand. Frequent washing can exacerbate this, so follow care instructions closely.

Ensure you are laying the garment flat to dry, not hanging it, as this can cause stretching. Reshape gently while damp if needed.
