Hand-knitted mid-length cardigan, made from a super-soft and hypoallergenic baby alpaca wool blend. The cardigan features an elegant wrap-over front and has no button fastening, giving it a casual yet stylish look.
Thanks to the comfortable roll neck and the warm, lightweight fabric, this cardigan is not only perfect for indoors, but also ideal as a light jacket during the first chilly days of autumn.
Material: 85% baby alpaca, 9% acrylic, 6% nylon
Inti Knitwear is special because every piece is hand-knitted by skilled craftswomen in the Andes in Ecuador. (The label even features the knitter’s name.) No two pieces are identical; the size chart is for guidance only, and that’s what makes your item unique. Made from 85% baby alpaca wool with a small amount of nylon added for shape retention, everything feels wonderfully soft and comfortable.
Washing instructions: Your INTI product doesn’t actually need washing; the wool is self-cleaning and is best left to air out in the open air. If you’d still prefer to wash it, you can do so: do not bleach; always wash the whole jumper, not just the stained area; use a wool-specific detergent; do not wash with other colours; do not tumble dry; dry flat; and use steam when ironing.
INTI products are thermoregulatory; the wool is made from hollow fibres that keep alpacas warm or cool as needed. The wool therefore adapts to their body temperature, and INTI products will do the same for you. This means you can wear them all year round!
