Merino Rib
The story

Eighty percent merino wool, twenty percent polyamide, knitted on two ends as a 2x2 rib. The rib is the point of it: two stitches up, two down, a structure that pulls in and springs back rather than stretching out and staying there. That is what lets the piece be made in one size, because the fabric does the adjusting instead of the pattern. The merino is the part you feel and the polyamide is the other fifth, and we would rather write both numbers than call it wool and leave it at that. It is knitted and made up in Italy, in one style and two colours. The care is a single line, dry clean only, which in practice means clean it rarely.

Why choose it

For the piece that has to fit every head at one size.

01

The rib does the fitting

Two stitches up, two down. It draws in and recovers, and that is the reason one size works here.

02

A blend, and we say so

Eighty percent merino wool to twenty percent polyamide. It is not pure wool and the label does not pretend otherwise.

03

Knitted in Italy

It is knitted and made up in Italy. Where the yarn itself was spun is not something we can state, so we leave it out.
