Cornish Crew Neck Jumper  with Contrast Trim

The Cornish crew neck jumper is a fresh take on the everyday knit: simple in shape, soft in handle and finished with a flash of colour at the trims. Designed for easy wear rather than over-styling, it brings the comfort of a classic jumper together with a brighter Ochre detail.

Knitted from a luxurious 30% cashmere and 70% lambswool blend, Cornish feels warm, light and naturally breathable. The fine gauge knit keeps the silhouette smooth, while the relaxed fit gives enough room for layering over shirts, T-shirts or fine base layers.

The crew neck shape makes this jumper timeless, but the fluro pink tipping gives it personality. Choose Ivory/Fluro Pink for a clean, playful contrast or Navy/Fluro Pink for a sharper everyday look.

Why This Crew Neck Jumper Stands Out

  • Luxurious 30% cashmere / 70% lambswool blend
  • Fine gauge knit for a smooth, light finish
  • Classic crew neck shape that works across seasons
  • Relaxed fit for comfort without a bulky look
  • Fluro pink contrast tipping for a distinctive Ochre finish
  • Ribbed cuffs and hem to help the jumper sit neatly
  • Soft enough for everyday wear, polished enough for smarter styling
  • Easy to wear with denim, skirts, tailored trousers or layered shirts
  • Available in two colourways: Ivory/Fluro Pink and Navy/Fluro Pink

Cornish is built around a true wardrobe favourite: the crew neck jumper. The neckline is neat, familiar and easy to style, giving the piece a clean frame without feeling too close or formal.

The relaxed body gives the jumper a soft, comfortable fit. It has enough ease to layer over a shirt, but the fine gauge knit keeps the shape refined rather than slouchy. Ribbed trims at the cuffs and hem help the garment sit neatly, so it feels casual but still considered.

The contrast tipping is the design detail that changes the mood. Instead of a plain finish, the fluro pink edge adds a small line of energy at the trims, making the jumper feel more personal, playful and recognisably Ochre.

Cornish is knitted from 30% cashmere and 70% lambswool, giving it the softness and warmth of natural fibres with a smooth, breathable feel. The cashmere adds a gentle luxury touch, while the lambswool brings structure, comfort and everyday resilience.

The fine gauge knit makes this jumper lighter than a chunky winter style. It is warm without feeling heavy, which makes it useful for layering under coats, wearing indoors, or reaching for on cooler spring and autumn days.

It is the kind of knit that feels easy from the first wear: soft, simple and practical, but lifted by the contrast trim so it never feels ordinary.

A crew neck jumper is one of the most dependable pieces in a knitwear wardrobe because it works with almost everything. It can be casual with jeans, cleaner with tailored trousers, softer with skirts, or layered over a collared shirt for a sharper look.

Cornish keeps the shape classic but adds a modern trim detail, so it feels more individual than a plain jumper. The contrast edge gives the eye somewhere to land without making the garment difficult to style.

This makes it a good choice if you want an everyday jumper that still has a little spark — something soft and wearable, but not invisible.

Cornish is for someone who likes simple knitwear with one clever detail. It suits women who want comfort, softness and a relaxed shape, but still enjoy a touch of colour in their wardrobe.

Wear it with denim for easy weekends, with navy or cream trousers for a cleaner look, or over a white shirt when you want the crew neck to feel a little smarter. The shape is uncomplicated, so the contrast trim can do the talking.

It is especially useful for everyday dressing: school runs, studio days, travel, relaxed workwear, coastal walks or any moment when you want luxury knitwear that feels natural rather than dressed up.

To keep your Cornish crew neck jumper soft, fresh and neatly shaped, we recommend gentle care:

  • Hand wash cold or dry clean
  • Use a gentle wool or cashmere detergent
  • Wash inside out to help protect the contrast tipping
  • Do not wring or twist the knit
  • Reshape the neckline, cuffs and hem while damp
  • Lay flat to dry naturally
  • Store folded rather than hanging to protect the shoulder line

What makes the Cornish crew neck jumper different?

Cornish has the ease of a classic crew neck jumper, but the fluro pink contrast tipping gives it a brighter, more individual finish.

Is this jumper suitable for everyday wear?

Yes. The relaxed fit, fine gauge knit and soft cashmere blend make it comfortable for regular wear, while the trim detail keeps it looking more considered than a basic jumper.

Does the crew neck feel tight?

No. The neckline is designed to sit neatly, but it should feel comfortable and easy rather than restrictive.

Can I wear a shirt underneath?

Yes. Cornish works well layered over a shirt, especially if you want the collar to show at the neckline for a smarter look.

Which colourway is easiest to style?

Navy/Fluro Pink is the more classic option and pairs easily with denim, black, grey and neutral tones. Ivory/Fluro Pink feels lighter, fresher and more playful.

Is the fluro pink trim very bold?

The trim is noticeable, but it is placed at the edges, so it adds colour without taking over the whole jumper.

Is Cornish a heavy winter jumper?

No. It is a soft fine gauge knit, so it feels lighter than chunky knitwear. It still gives warmth from the cashmere and lambswool blend, but without heaviness.

Can this jumper be dressed up?

Yes. Style it with tailored trousers, a neat coat or simple jewellery for a cleaner look. The crew neck shape makes it easy to move between casual and smarter outfits.

Will the ribbed cuffs and hem help the fit?

Yes. The ribbed trims help the jumper sit neatly at the sleeves and hem, giving the relaxed shape a more finished outline.

How should I care for the contrast trim?

Wash gently, avoid twisting the knit, and reshape the cuffs, hem and neckline while damp. Dry flat to help the trims stay neat.

What do gauge and ply mean in cashmere knitwear?

Gauge refers to the density of the knit, while ply describes how many yarn strands are twisted together. Together, they affect the weight, warmth, texture and structure of a cashmere garment. A finer gauge usually creates a lighter, smoother knit, while ply influences thickness and warmth. You can learn more in our Cashmere Knit Gauge & Ply Guide.

Cornish Crew Neck Jumper

The Cornish crew neck jumper is a soft, lightweight knit designed for everyday ease, gentle colour contrast and refined comfort. Crafted from a luxurious 30% cashmere and 70% lambswool blend, Cornish brings together softness, breathability and natural warmth in a clean, wearable silhouette. With its classic crew neckline, relaxed fit and subtle fluro pink tipping, this crew neck jumper feels simple at first glance but carefully finished in the details. It is an easy piece to wear with denim, tailored trousers, skirts or layered over shirts for a relaxed but polished look.

Why This Crew Neck Jumper Stands Out:

  • Soft 30% cashmere / 70% lambswool blend
  • Fine gauge knit for a smooth, lightweight feel
  • Classic crew neckline for timeless styling
  • Relaxed fit for comfort and easy layering
  • Subtle fluro pink contrast tipping for a modern finish
  • Ribbed cuffs and hem for shape and structure
  • Breathable natural fibres for year-round wear
  • Available in two size options: S/M and M/L

Design & Fit

Cornish is designed around a classic crew neckline, giving the jumper a clean and familiar shape that is easy to style. The neckline sits neatly without feeling tight, making it comfortable worn alone or layered over a shirt or fine base layer. The relaxed silhouette gives the jumper natural ease through the body, while the smooth fine gauge knit keeps the overall look refined rather than bulky. It is soft enough for casual everyday wear, but polished enough to style with smarter pieces. The fluro pink contrast tipping adds a distinctive Ochre touch. Placed subtly at the trims, it lifts the design without overpowering the simplicity of the jumper. The ribbed cuffs and hem help the knit sit neatly and give the garment a softly structured finish.

Fabric & Feel

Made from a 30% cashmere and 70% lambswool blend, Cornish feels soft, warm and breathable. The cashmere adds a smooth, luxurious touch, while the lambswool brings structure, insulation and everyday durability. The fine gauge knit gives this jumper a lighter feel than a chunky winter knit, making it ideal for layering across seasons. It offers warmth without heaviness and works beautifully under jackets, coats or gilets.

Why Choose a Crew Neck Jumper?

A crew neck jumper is one of the most versatile knitwear shapes because it works with almost every wardrobe. It can be worn casually with denim, dressed up with tailored trousers, or layered over a collared shirt for a sharper look. Cornish keeps that timeless crew neck shape but adds a softer, more contemporary finish through its relaxed fit and contrast tipping. It is simple enough to become a daily favourite, but detailed enough to feel special.

Who This Crew Neck Jumper Is For

This crew neck jumper is designed for those who like easy luxury, clean knitwear and small design details that make a piece feel more personal. It is ideal if you want something soft, light and wearable, without choosing a plain basic. Wear Cornish with jeans and trainers for relaxed weekend style, layer it over a crisp shirt for a smarter everyday outfit, or pair it with wide-leg trousers for a simple, modern silhouette.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes the Cornish jumper different from a plain crew neck?

Cornish has the simplicity of a classic crew neck jumper, but the fluro pink contrast tipping adds a modern, playful detail that makes it feel more distinctive.

Is the crew neckline close-fitting?

No. The neckline is classic and neat, but designed to feel comfortable rather than tight. It works well worn alone or layered over a shirt.

Which colourway is more versatile?

Navy / Fluro Pink is the more classic option and easy to wear with denim, black, grey and neutrals. Ivory / Fluro Pink feels fresher and brighter.

Can I layer a shirt underneath?

Yes. The relaxed fit and crew neckline make Cornish easy to layer over a collared shirt, especially if you want the collar to show neatly at the neck.

Does the contrast tipping make the jumper hard to style?

No. The fluro pink detail is small and placed at the trims, so it adds interest without dominating the outfit. Keep the rest of the look simple and let the trim do the work.

Is this jumper better for spring or winter?

Cornish works well across seasons. The fine gauge knit is light enough for spring layering, while the cashmere and lambswool blend gives soft warmth in cooler weather.

How does the relaxed fit sit on the body?

The jumper has an easy, relaxed shape through the chest and body. It is not designed to cling, but it still keeps a clean outline because of the fine gauge knit.

How should I care for the contrast trim?

Wash gently inside out, avoid wringing, and reshape the trims while damp. Dry the jumper flat so the neckline, cuffs and hem stay neat.

What do gauge and ply mean in cashmere knitwear?

Gauge refers to the density of the knit, while ply describes how many yarn strands are twisted together. Together, they affect the weight, warmth, texture and structure of a cashmere garment. A finer gauge creates a lighter, smoother knit, while a higher ply usually gives more warmth and thickness. You can learn more in our Cashmere Knit Gauge & Ply Guide.

Why This Stripe Cashmere Blend Jumper Feels Special

  • Pastel stripes give colour without overpowering the outfit
  • V neckline creates a lighter, more open shape than a classic crew neck
  • Fine-gauge cashmere blend feels smooth, breathable and easy to layer
  • Ivory base keeps the orchid, pink and cloud blue tones soft and wearable
  • Relaxed shape gives comfort while still looking polished
  • Ribbed edges help the jumper sit neatly at the cuffs and hem
  • Works with denim, tailoring, linen, skirts and simple neutral layers
  • A distinctive alternative to a plain cashmere blend jumper

Cherry is designed around a relaxed V neckline that gives the jumper an easy, flattering shape. The neckline opens the front of the knit without feeling too low, making it simple to wear on its own or with a fine vest underneath.

The stripes are the character of this piece. Instead of a hard graphic contrast, Cherry uses a softer pastel rhythm across the body and sleeves. The ivory base keeps the colour fresh, while orchid, pink and cloud blue add a gentle brightness that feels modern and feminine.

The one-size fit gives the jumper a relaxed drape through the body. Ribbed cuffs and hem bring the shape back in just enough, so the jumper feels casual but not loose or unfinished.

Cherry is knitted from a 30% cashmere and 70% lambswool blend. The cashmere gives the jumper its smooth, luxurious touch, while the lambswool adds warmth, bounce and natural resilience for regular wear.

The lightweight fine-gauge knit makes this jumper comfortable across seasons. It has enough warmth for cooler days, but it does not feel bulky under coats or heavy indoors.

The result is women’s luxury knitwear with an easy mood: soft, breathable, colourful and practical enough to become part of your everyday wardrobe.

A pastel stripe sweater for women can bring life to simple outfits without feeling too bright or difficult to style. Cherry is colourful in a gentle way, which makes it easier to wear than a bold statement knit.

The V-neck jumper shape adds to its versatility. It softens the neckline, works well with jewellery or scarves, and layers neatly over fine base pieces when extra coverage is needed.

If you already own plain knitwear, Cherry offers something more expressive while still keeping the comfort and softness of a cashmere blend jumper.

Cherry is for women who like their knitwear to feel relaxed, light and a little playful. It suits anyone who wants colour in their wardrobe, but prefers a soft pastel palette rather than strong contrast.

Style it with pale denim for a fresh daytime look, navy trousers for a cleaner finish, ivory jeans for a tonal outfit, or a simple skirt when you want the stripes to feel softer and more feminine.

This is an easy piece for spring, cooler summer evenings, early autumn and layered winter dressing. It feels cheerful, but still refined enough for everyday luxury knitwear.

To keep your Cherry stripe cashmere blend jumper soft, fresh and beautifully shaped, we recommend gentle care:

  • Hand wash cold or dry clean
  • Use a gentle wool or cashmere detergent
  • Turn the jumper inside out before washing to help protect the pastel stripes
  • Wash with similar colours only
  • Do not wring or twist the knit
  • Reshape the V neckline, cuffs and hem while damp
  • Lay flat to dry naturally, away from strong direct sunlight
  • Store folded rather than hanging to protect the shoulder shape

What makes Cherry a stripe cashmere blend jumper?

Cherry combines a soft cashmere and lambswool blend with pastel stripes across the body and sleeves. The stripe design gives the jumper colour and personality, while the natural fibres keep it soft, warm and breathable.

Is this jumper very bright?

No. The colours are fresh but gentle. The ivory base softens the orchid, pink and cloud blue stripes, creating a pastel look rather than a strong graphic stripe.

How does the V neckline sit?

The V neckline is open and flattering without feeling too deep. It gives the jumper a lighter shape around the neckline and works well with or without a fine layer underneath.

Is Cherry a relaxed fit jumper?

Yes. Cherry has an easy one-size fit with a relaxed body. The ribbed hem and cuffs help the jumper keep a neat outline, so it does not feel shapeless.

What can I wear with a pastel stripe sweater?

Cherry looks lovely with pale denim, ivory trousers, navy, stone, soft grey and simple neutral layers. Keeping the rest of the outfit clean lets the pastel stripes feel intentional.

Can this V-neck jumper be layered?

Yes. The fine-gauge knit is light enough to layer under coats and jackets, and the V neckline can be worn over a camisole, vest or fine long-sleeve top.

Is this jumper suitable beyond spring?

Yes. Although the colours feel fresh, the cashmere and lambswool blend gives natural warmth, making Cherry useful for cool summer evenings, autumn days and winter layering.

Does the stripe design go all the way around?

The jumper is designed with a multi-stripe look across the knit, giving colour and movement from different angles rather than only at the front.

Is this women’s luxury knitwear jumper easy to wear every day?

Yes. Cherry feels special because of the cashmere blend and pastel stripe design, but the relaxed shape makes it simple enough for everyday outfits.

How should I protect the pastel colours?

Wash gently inside out with similar colours, use a wool or cashmere detergent, avoid harsh heat and dry flat away from strong direct sunlight.

Will the jumper feel heavy?

No. Cherry is made in a lightweight fine-gauge knit, so it gives soft warmth without feeling thick or bulky.

What makes Cherry different from a plain cashmere blend jumper?

The pastel stripe palette and V neckline give Cherry a more expressive, feminine character. It still has the comfort of a classic cashmere blend jumper, but with more colour and styling personality.

Carlota Cashmere Cardigan – Collared Luxury Knitwear

The Carlota cashmere cardigan is an elegant layering piece designed with softness, simplicity and quiet polish. Crafted from a luxurious 30% cashmere and 70% lambswool blend, Carlota offers gentle warmth, natural breathability and a refined feel that works beautifully across seasons.

With its soft open collar, relaxed silhouette and signature pin fastening, this cashmere cardigan brings a more modern finish to classic knitwear. It is designed to fall naturally over the body, making it easy to wear over T-shirts, fine knits, dresses or tailored separates.

Why This Cashmere Cardigan Stands Out

  • Luxurious 30% cashmere / 70% lambswool blend
  • 8 Gauge / 4 Ply knit construction for warmth and structure
  • Soft open collar for a relaxed, polished neckline
  • Signature pin fastening instead of traditional buttons
  • Relaxed silhouette for easy everyday layering
  • Ribbed cuffs and hem for a neat, shaped finish
  • Lightweight yet cosy feel
  • Designed for seasonless wear
  • Available in S/M and M/L

Carlota is designed with a soft open collar that frames the neckline without feeling formal. Unlike a classic button cardigan, the front is finished with a signature pin fastening, giving the piece a cleaner and more contemporary look.

The relaxed shape allows the cardigan to drape naturally rather than sitting tightly against the body. This gives Carlota an easy, elegant feel and makes it especially useful for layering over different outfits.

Ribbed cuffs and a ribbed hem add subtle structure, helping the cardigan keep its shape while maintaining softness. The overall silhouette feels refined but unforced — polished enough for smart styling, relaxed enough for everyday wear.

Knitted in an 8 Gauge / 4 Ply cashmere blend, Carlota has a soft, warm and lightly structured feel. The cashmere adds smoothness and luxury, while the lambswool brings durability, insulation and shape retention.

The result is a cashmere cardigan that feels cosy without becoming heavy. It is warm enough for cooler days, but still breathable and comfortable enough for indoor layering.

A collared cashmere cardigan offers a more polished look than a casual open cardigan, while still keeping the comfort of soft knitwear. The collar gives shape around the neckline and makes the cardigan feel more styled, even with very simple outfits.

Carlota is especially versatile because the pin fastening lets the front sit softly rather than pulling into a rigid button line. This gives the garment movement, elegance and a relaxed sense of luxury.

This cashmere cardigan is designed for those who prefer timeless knitwear with a modern detail. It is ideal if you want a piece that feels soft and luxurious, but not overly delicate or difficult to style.

Wear Carlota over a fine T-shirt for everyday ease, layer it with tailored trousers for a smarter look, or style it over a dress when you want warmth without losing elegance.

To keep your cashmere cardigan soft, smooth and beautifully shaped, we recommend gentle care:

  • Remove the pin before washing or storing
  • Hand wash cold or dry clean
  • Use a gentle wool or cashmere detergent
  • Reshape the collar, cuffs and hem while damp
  • Lay flat to dry naturally
  • Store folded rather than hanging to preserve the shoulder line

What makes the Carlota cashmere cardigan different from a button cardigan?

Carlota is fastened with a signature pin rather than a row of buttons. This gives the front a softer, cleaner look and allows the cardigan to fall more naturally.

Can the pin fastening be removed?

Yes. The pin can be removed, which makes the cardigan easy to wear open and also helps protect the knit during washing or storage.

Does the open collar sit neatly?

Yes. The collar is designed to sit softly around the neckline, giving structure without feeling stiff or formal.

Which colour is better for a timeless wardrobe?

Stone is a classic neutral that pairs easily with black, navy, denim and cream. Buttermilk feels softer and lighter, especially with warm neutrals and pale tones.

Is Carlota suitable for smart casual dressing?

Yes. The collar and pin fastening make Carlota feel more polished than a basic cardigan, while the relaxed fit keeps it comfortable and easy to wear.

Can this cardigan replace a light jacket?

In mild weather, yes. The 8 Gauge / 4 Ply knit gives warmth and structure, making Carlota useful as a soft outer layer indoors or on cooler days.

How should I style the pin fastening?

Fasten the pin at the centre for a neat look, place it slightly off-centre for a softer drape, or remove it completely and wear the cardigan open.

How do I protect the collar shape?

After washing, reshape the collar gently while damp and dry the cardigan flat. Avoid hanging it for long periods, as this can stretch the neckline and shoulders.

What do gauge and ply mean in cashmere knitwear?

Gauge refers to the density of the knit, while ply describes how many yarn strands are twisted together. Together, they affect the weight, warmth, texture and structure of a cashmere garment. A finer gauge creates a lighter, smoother knit, while a higher ply usually gives more warmth and thickness. You can learn more in our Cashmere Knit Gauge & Ply Guide.
