Lyle & Scott Lambswool Crew Neck Jumper - Black - XXL

Yes, 100% lambswool provides excellent natural insulation and is very effective for cold weather. It can be layered for added warmth in extreme conditions.

It is recommended to hand wash lambswool in cool water with a wool-specific detergent. Check the care label; some wool cycles on modern machines may be suitable, but hand washing is the safest method to maintain the garment's integrity.

Store the jumper clean and dry. Use cedar wood blocks or sachets in your wardrobe, or specific moth repellent products designed for woolens.

A regular fit is a standard cut that is neither too tight nor too loose. It allows for comfortable movement and easy layering over other clothing items.

Lambswool is naturally odor-resistant and requires less frequent washing than other materials. Airing out the jumper between wears is often sufficient. Wash only when necessary to preserve the fibers and avoid over-washing.

Following the care instructions, particularly using cool water and a mild detergent, will help prevent color fading. Always wash dark colors separately.

Ensure you are wearing a base layer underneath. Lambswool can sometimes feel slightly rough to extremely sensitive skin. Washing may also soften the fibers over time.

Reshape the jumper gently while damp after washing and lay it flat to dry. Avoid hanging the jumper, as this can cause it to stretch out of shape.

Pilling is a natural occurrence with wool fibers. Gently remove pills with a fabric comb or electric de-piller. This should reduce with subsequent wears and proper care.

If shrinkage has occurred due to washing in hot water or machine drying, try gently stretching the damp garment back to its original shape and re-drying flat. Future washes should strictly follow cool water hand-wash instructions.
