FAQs

What is the primary material of the Vitow Knit Cardigan?

The cardigan is made from a blend of 34% alpaca, 34% wool, 29% polyamide, and 3% elastane.

How should I determine my size?

The cardigan features an oversized and voluminous fit. Refer to standard UK dress sizing for guidance, and consider your preferred level of oversized fit.

Is this cardigan suitable for very cold weather?

Yes, the alpaca-wool blend provides significant warmth while remaining lightweight, making it suitable for colder conditions as a layering piece.

Can I machine wash this cardigan?

Hand washing or dry cleaning is recommended. If using a machine, opt for a cold, gentle cycle with a detergent specifically for wool.

What does 'Jardin chine' hue mean?

'Jardin chine' refers to a subtle, mottled green color, giving the cardigan a unique, variegated appearance.

How do I care for the mother-of-pearl buttons?

Mother-of-pearl buttons are durable but should be handled with care. Avoid harsh chemicals during washing and drying.

Will the cardigan be too bulky to layer?

Despite its voluminous fit, the knit is designed to be lightweight, making it suitable for layering without adding excessive bulk.

Troubleshooting

Cardigan feels itchy

While made with a soft yarn, some individuals may be sensitive to wool blends. Wearing a thin base layer underneath can help mitigate itchiness.

Cardigan stretches out of shape

Ensure the cardigan is laid flat to dry after washing. Avoid hanging it for storage. If it has stretched, a gentle re-shape while damp and allowing it to air dry might help.

Buttons become loose

If buttons become loose, carefully re-sew them using a strong thread. Ensure the thread color matches the button or cardigan for a seamless repair.
