Silvana sweater
The round yoke sweater is knitted seamlessly from top to bottom – meaning no annoying sewing as you cast off the last stitch until you're finished! Then you can slip on this wonderfully soft, cozy favorite piece made from Merino 120 by Austermann right away – and you'll be extremely reluctant to take it off again! This is due to the material's wonderful wearing properties, as well as its casual, relaxed cut. The yoke, knitted in one piece, wraps perfectly around the shoulders and allows for the harmonious stripe pattern, which also seamlessly closes into the round. This design is inspired by classic Icelandic sweaters, but is given a fashionable update with graphic borders and modern colors.
Austermann's high-quality MERINO 120 virgin wool yarn is made from 100% pure superfine Merino. With a length of 120 m/50 g, suitable for a wide variety of projects, the yarn fills a gap in Austermann's Merino range. Previously, pure Merino yarns were offered in lengths of 85, 105, and 160 m/50 g; now, the versatile 120 m/50 g rounds out the range.
The premium quality of the extra-fine fibers used for Austermann's pure Merino yarns makes these balls a favorite on the wool shelf. The yarns' special advantage is the sustainable, chlorine-free processing of the raw material. They are machine-washable and tumble-dryable using the environmentally friendly EXP process, which saves water and minimizes the use of chemicals. They are also certified according to OEKO-TEX Standard 100, meaning they have been tested using a globally recognized testing system and are proven to be free of harmful substances and environmentally friendly. They also offer the many benefits of this high-tech fiber from nature: temperature-regulating, warming, moisture-regulating, pleasantly soft, odor-inhibiting, stretchy, easy-care, flame-resistant, antistatic, with UV protection, and sustainable.
