Organic Cotton & Wool Sweaters
M4 is organic cotton with 30% wool — the one for people who do not actually get on with wool. The cotton takes away the prickle, the wool keeps the structure and the warmth, and the whole thing goes in the washing machine on a normal cycle. It is also the only yarn here that does not need to be treated like glass.
What you are buying
- 70% organic cotton, 30% wool
- Warmth: light — built for spring, autumn, air conditioning and mild winters
- Surface: matte, dense, no halo at all
- Care: machine wash cold on a gentle cycle, dry flat. This is the easy one.
- Pilling: minimal; cotton does not bloom the way cashmere does
Who it suits
Warm sleepers, wool-sensitive skin, anyone in a climate where a merino sweater is simply too much. Also a sensible first order if you want to test the fit before committing to cashmere.
Compared with our other yarns
M1, M2 and M3 all have wool or cashmere as the outer surface and want hand washing. M4 is the outlier on purpose: less warmth, far less maintenance, and the lowest price of the four.
Every piece is knitted to your own four measurements — chest, shoulder, body length and sleeve — after you order, not pulled from a shelf. Twelve colours at no extra charge. Knitting takes 2–3 weeks, then 5–10 business days of tracked delivery to the United States or Canada, duties and import taxes are payable by the customer on delivery.
