Cotton & Merino Relaxed Open Front Cardigan.

The Easy Summer Cardigan You'll Wear with Everything

Looking for a summer cardigan you can wear with almost anything?

Our Cotton & Merino Relaxed Open Front Cardigan is designed to be exactly that — plain, simple and wonderfully easy to wear.

With a relaxed open-front design and comfortable ¾-length sleeves, it's an effortless extra layer for warmer days, cooler evenings and everything in between.

The clean, uncomplicated styling makes it easy to wear over dresses, tops, blouses, skirts or trousers, while the soft 50% Merino Wool and 50% Cotton blend provides a beautifully balanced combination of comfort, breathability and natural fibre performance.

A Beautiful New Summer Blend

This cardigan comes from our new Cotton & Merino collection, combining 50% Merino Wool with 50% Cotton.

Merino Wool brings softness, natural temperature regulation and comfortable warmth, while Cotton adds a fresh, breathable feel that makes the blend particularly well suited to spring and summer wear.

The result is a lightweight natural-fibre knit that's comfortable when worn on its own and equally useful as a light extra layer when temperatures drop.
