Fine-Gauge Wool-Blend Pullover

A fine-gauge pullover, short in the body and wide at the neck: the kind of knit that goes under a coat without adding bulk and still reads as something rather than nothing when the coat comes off. The stall calls the yarn a wool blend (羊毛混纺) and prints no percentage anywhere on the listing, so the fibre content stays unconfirmed here; what the photographs do show is a light, evenly knitted cloth with a soft halo, ribbed at the cuff and the hem, and a neckline wide enough to sit on the collarbone. Every colour in the range is knitted twice, once with a round neck and once with a V neck, and the first photograph puts the same two bodies under one light to show exactly that. The stall lists ten colours; three of them are photographed nowhere, so seven are offered here.

One sweater, two necks

Every colour is knitted twice — a round neck and a V neck — and the first frame shows both, on two bodies, under the same light. That is the only honest way to show a difference that lives in the neckline and not in the photograph. Say which one you want when you write to us; the price is the same.

Ten colours listed, seven photographed

Its list runs to ten colours. A beige, a haze blue and a red appear in none of its photographs, so they are not sold here. A colour we cannot show you is a colour you cannot check before it arrives, and that is not worth the extra choice.

What the stall leaves out

Wool blend, and nothing after it: no percentage, no fibre breakdown, no weight, no measurement table. The listing gives body weight ranges for the sizes and stops there. Every one of those fields is left as DETAILS TO BE CONFIRMED rather than filled in with a number nobody published.

Details

• Colour: White · Mint · Blush · Mustard · Camel · Purple · Black
• Size: S · M · L · XL · XXL, as the stall lists them. Its guide is by body weight: S for 85–100 斤 (about 42–50 kg) up to XXL for 130–145 斤 (about 65–72 kg). Chest, sleeve and length DETAILS TO BE CONFIRMED
• Material: A wool blend, which is what the stall calls it (羊毛混纺) — it publishes no percentage and no fibre breakdown, so the composition is DETAILS TO BE CONFIRMED
• Fit: Loose and short, with a wide round neck or a V neck, dropped shoulders and ribbed cuffs and hem. It finishes at the high hip

Care

• Hand wash cool, or dry clean. A blend of this gauge will felt if it is agitated.
• Dry flat and out of direct sun. A wet knit hung on a line grows, and it does not come back.
• Store it folded. A hanger puts the whole weight of the sweater on two points of the shoulder.

Why we chose it

Because it is the plainest thing in the shop and it earns its place anyway: one yarn, two necklines, no print on it anywhere — and a stall that photographed both necks on the same frame instead of promising them in a colour chart.
