Knitted sweater 100% wool - BELACARO
Knitted sweater 100% wool - BELACARO
This sweater is the result of the collaboration with the company BELACARO in order to produce a 100% wool sweater from our Frisian sheep that would be a unisex model for all. The design and production are meticulously carried out by the BELACARO knitting workshop
.
Available in two sizes:
Size 1: Small (sweater size: chest 42", total height: 21", sleeve length: 19.5")
Size 2: Large (sweater size: 46" chest, total height: 24", sleeve length: 20.5") You need to calculate your chest size and add a few inches
for
the desired ease.
The neck is not fit/tight, so even if you are more sensitive to wool, you won't feel it if you wear a sweater underneath. Otherwise, unless you are VERY sensitive to wool, you won't feel a “wool sting
.”

Size 1:5' 4" woman - 135 lbs: semi-fitted cut

Care:
You won't need to wash your wool sweater as often as those made of synthetic fibers. All you have to do is ventilate them to freshen them up. Wool's natural resistance to odors and its ability to keep you warm and dry is truly remarkable.
We recommend washing by hand (or by machine on the delicate cycle as a second resort). Immerse the piece in warm soapy water, let it soak for about 5 minutes and then massage gently. Rinse off with warm/cold water. Gently wring it out and let it dry flat on a towel. Use our lanolin wool soap for best results as well as our revitalizing wool spray between washes

The sweater was hand washed after it was made.
The wool remains a 100% natural and handmade product, knitting is made by a knitting machine in small batches. Minor defects due to the nature of the wool and the workmanship are considered acceptable. (ex: wool diameter varies, slight color variations in places).
