Women's Twisted Knit Pullover - Thickened Acrylic, Autumn Winter

A cable that twists rather than runs straight, worked in a thickened acrylic that holds the relief of the stitch instead of letting it flatten. This is a pullover for the months when a jacket is too much indoors and a shirt is not enough anywhere.

What it is made of

A thickened wool-acrylic knit. The acrylic content is what keeps the twist standing - a pure wool of this gauge would relax and lose its texture within a season, while the blend springs back after every wear. It also means the colour holds through washing and the garment does not shrink out of its size.

How it fits

A regular fit through the body with long sleeves, in sizes small through extra large. The knit has enough weight to hang away from the body rather than clinging, so the cable pattern stays legible instead of stretching flat across the chest.

Where it earns its place

• Twisted cable holds its relief instead of flattening after a season
• Blend keeps its shape and colour where a pure wool of this gauge would sag
• Weight enough to hang away from the body, so the pattern stays readable
• Warm without a jacket's bulk indoors
