Doriani Cashmere Cashmere Crew-Neck Sweater Light Taupe

A crew-neck sweater in 100% cashmere from Doriani in light taupe, with a slim fit and ribbed neckline, cuffs and hem. It is light enough to wear under a jacket and warm enough to wear on its own on winter days.

Cashmere is the fine, soft undercoat of the cashmere goat: it is lighter than sheep's wool, yet very warm. Fine gauge means many small, tightly packed stitches, which give a smooth, thin knit. A crew neck is a round neckline that sits close to the base of the neck, so a shirt collar fits neatly over it. Rib is a knit of raised and recessed lines that stretches and springs back. Slim fit means it follows the body closely without feeling tight.

Light taupe, a soft mix of beige and grey, is the most versatile shade in the range and works with navy, brown and white alike. Made in Italy by Doriani, a Milanese family company specialising in cashmere, in sizes 44 to 56.
