Alpaca Tweed Cardigan
Product Details
Meet your new layering hero for the season: our latest spin on the boxy-fit silhouette is cut in a fresh yarn mix which blends merino wool with alpaca. The result is a fabulously flecked effect that mirrors the classic appeal of tweed with an extra-soft, fluffy touch.
We've underlined the fit with dropped shoulders and trimmed it with three Corozo buttons crafted from renewable sources.
Pop it on over a crisp cotton shirt and add a contemporary twist with our stretch leather leggings.

Care
Washing Instructions
Hand Wash only
When washing by hand, avoid twisting or wringing as this may damage the wool. Do not use fabric conditioner when washing. To remove excess water from the garment we recommend wrapping it in a towel and gently squeezing it before leaving the item to dry. Do not put on a spin cycle. Lay the product out flat to dry, do not hang your wool garments. Allow to dry naturally away from all artificial heat sources.
Care & Cleaning Products
Pilling
Clothing made from natural fibres can occasionally 'pill'. These little balls of fibre or 'pills' are created as the smaller fibres in the twist of yarn naturally shed with wear. This will lessen as you wash and wear your garment. Until then, they can be gently removed with our Pilling Comb.

Ratings & reviews
Write a reviewThis is a lovely quality cardigan but unfortunately it was too short for my liking. The colour was different from the photo, more of a lilac and so I’ve returned it.
I absolutely loved the feel of this product when I purchased 2 years ago. It was Merino with Alpaca. However it very soon went out of shape and holey at the elbows. I woukd buy a replacement but wondered if there are any more colours coming? Plus being made in Uk might help?
Thank you for your review, the Alpaca Tweed cardigan is currently available in Moss and Skylight on our website, product code 7738. Unfortunately we dont currently have a UK supplier for this item. Kind regards celticandco
Just ordered one in moss, roomy fit but looks great on, cosy, stylish and comfortable. However disappointed by the quality with regard to the finishing of the ribbed edges on the cuffs and hem which look as though they could easily fray and with two thin strands of elastic, presumably keep to keep the rib tight, concerned if these should break the shape will be lost. Such a shame on what is otherwise a lovely cardigan, so now in a dilemma as to whether to return or not!
Exactly as described. Mine is a roomy fit, enough to layer over jumpers. It is warm and cosy.
Useful, warm cardigan for everyday wear. Good quality and fit.
Looses shape really easily. So soft and warm. Haven’t taken it off for practically a year and now has a hole in sleeve. Woukd def buy again if shape issues were addressed
I am 5ft 2in and am between a 14 and 16 (English sizing). This cardigan fits well and I have worn it nearly every day since I bought it - very warm. Colour was exactly as photo. The wool texture isn't a problem and I always wear a top underneath anyway. It has a lovely hand knitted look.
What a wonderful cardigan! I am so excited about the look and quality of this piece. It is a bit bulky, but I simply love it. I am pretty athletic with broad shoulders and a AA/B bust, usually between seize 10 and 12, small was perfect for me and looks simply amazing with jeans or leggings. I could not be happier.
Just arrived and love it. Great fit and it is so warm!
Such a lovely cardigan every detail sublime. I ordered small and it fits perfect. (5'2" size 4/6)
