Merz b. Schwanen - Blade Merino Wool / Cashmere Blend Waffle Pullover
A waffle-knit crewneck pullover in rust, made from a premium blend of 90% Merino wool and 10% cashmere. The combination gives the knit the natural warmth, breathability and temperature regulation of Merino, with cashmere adding extra softness and a smoother, more comfortable feel against the skin.
The body and sleeves are worked in a pronounced waffle knit, creating a dense, three-dimensional surface with plenty of texture. Beyond its visual character, the construction helps trap warmth while retaining the flexibility and natural movement of knitted wool.
The sweater is built around a classic crew neckline with a rib-knit collar that sits neatly against the neck without feeling restrictive. Raglan sleeves run diagonally from the neckline into the underarm, eliminating the conventional shoulder seam and giving the garment a softer shoulder line together with greater freedom of movement.
The silhouette is clean and easygoing without becoming oversized. It sits naturally through the chest and torso, with enough structure in the knit to maintain its shape. Long sleeves finish with deep ribbed cuffs, while a wide rib-knit waistband provides a secure, tidy finish at the hem and gives the sweater its slightly more defined shape.
A small woven logo tab positioned at the lower hem provides the only visible branding, keeping the overall appearance understated.
Warm enough to work as a standalone layer through autumn and winter, yet refined enough to wear beneath a coat or jacket, this is a simple crewneck elevated by the quality of its yarn, distinctive texture and carefully balanced construction.
