Zanone Flexwool Fine-Knit Crew-Neck Sweater Sand

A fine-knit crew-neck sweater in sand, with ribbed cuffs, a ribbed hem and a woven Zanone Flexwool label at the neck. A fine knit uses thin yarn and small stitches, so the sweater stays light and slim enough to wear under a jacket or over a shirt.

Flexwool is Zanone's merino yarn with stretch: 95% virgin wool and 5% polyamide, a nylon fibre that lets the knit spring back into shape. Merino is a fine wool that warms without itching; mulesing-free means the sheep were spared mulesing, a painful removal of skin around the tail.

It is true to size, so take your usual size. Zanone uses Italian sizes: 48 is about an M, 50 an L, 52 an XL. Sand is a warm, light neutral that goes with navy, brown, white and every shade of blue. The same model also comes in blue melange.
