Country Road Italian Yarn Merino Blend Fluted Hem Knit

Purchase Protection & Refund Policy

The design is deliberately minimal through the neckline and shoulders, with a clean round neck, slim full-length sleeves and a softly fitted shape through the upper body. Rather than finishing with the usual tight ribbed waistband, the body gently releases towards the hem, creating a subtle fluted effect with soft movement around the hips. The shape is understated rather than overtly peplum: enough flare to give the knit some architecture and femininity without making it difficult to style. From a distance it reads as a beautifully simple black sweater. Up close, the fine knit, curved hemline and softly sculpted silhouette give it a much more considered feel. Knitted from a premium Italian yarn blend of 54% viscose, 24% extra fine merino wool and 22% polyamide. The high viscose content gives the fabric its smooth drape and softness, while the merino adds warmth and a refined wool handle without the bulk of a traditional winter jumper. The result is a relatively fine, elegant knit that works particularly well for transitional weather, layering and polished everyday dressing. The completely black palette and lack of visible branding make this an especially versatile wardrobe piece. It has that restrained, minimalist quality that works just as naturally with tailoring as it does with denim.
