FAQs

What is the primary material of this jumper?

The jumper is primarily made from extra-fine merino wool, with textural nylon quilting and contrast nylon shoulder panels.

Is this jumper suitable for machine washing?

Yes, it can be machine washed on a gentle cycle with cold water, using a wool-specific detergent. However, hand washing is often recommended for preserving the garment's integrity.

How should I dry the jumper?

Do not tumble dry. Lay the jumper flat on a clean towel to air dry, reshaping it gently while damp.

What does 'mixed-media fabrication' mean in this context?

It refers to the combination of different materials – in this case, soft merino wool and textural nylon – to create a unique look, feel, and performance characteristics.

Can I wear this jumper in warmer weather?

While merino wool is breathable, the jumper's construction with quilting may make it warmer. It is best suited for cooler to mild temperatures or as a layering piece.

What is the benefit of the contrast shoulder panels?

The contrast shoulder panels provide a structural element and add a distinctive visual detail to the jumper's design.

What size should I order?

Refer to the brand's specific sizing chart for the most accurate fit, as apparel sizes can vary between brands. The product is listed as 'XS' in Dark Sand.

Troubleshooting

Jumper feels itchy

Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and that the jumper is thoroughly rinsed. Merino wool is typically soft, so itchiness may indicate residue or a need for further softening through gentle washing.

Jumper has lost its shape

Reshape the jumper while damp and lay it flat to dry. Avoid wringing or twisting. For significant stretching, gentle steaming might help, but avoid direct high heat.

Nylon quilting appears creased

Use a cool iron on the reverse side of the fabric, placing a pressing cloth between the iron and the nylon if necessary. Avoid direct high heat.

Pilling on merino wool sections

This is a natural characteristic of fine wool fibers. Use a fabric comb or a gentle de-piller to remove small pills. Regular, gentle washing can also help minimize pilling over time.
