Rainbow Dash Cashmere Blend Sweater - PRE ORDER
Please note this is a pre-order piece. The estimated delivery date is early 8/9 April
We've always loved a rainbow stripe, but wanted to create something with a more heritage feel - something that nods to tradition while feeling fresh and modern. The result is our Dash Sleeve Cashmere Blend Sweater, where interlocking vertical dashes in tomato red, papaya orange, pale yellow, sky blue, lilac, pale mint, and bright pink bring unexpected joy to a classic oatmeal knit.
The dash pattern runs from elbow to just above the cuff, creating a playful detail that catches the eye without overwhelming. It's the kind of sweater that makes you smile when you put it on, and makes others smile when they see it.
Crafted from 70% Fine Wool and 30% Grade A Cashmere, this sweater offers exceptional warmth without weight. The classic but loose fit with ribbed collar, cuffs, and hem is effortlessly comfortable and endlessly versatile. Soft enough to wear all day, special enough to draw compliments wherever you go.
Why you'll love it:
- 70% fine wool, 30% Grade A cashmere blend
- Rainbow dash pattern from elbow to cuff
- Classic fit
- Ribbed collar, cuffs, and hem
- Handcrafted by skilled artisans in Nepal
- Responsibly produced with 100% natural yarns
The details:
This sweater embodies slow fashion at its finest. Each piece is thoughtfully handcrafted to become a wardrobe staple you'll reach for year after year. The natural cashmere blend softens beautifully with wear, while the heritage-inspired dash detail adds personality and a touch of rainbow joy to your everyday.
Perfect for layering through changing seasons, this sweater pairs beautifully with everything from casual denim to tailored trousers. Designed to be worn for all seasons, to be loved throughout and last a lifetime.
