Mercy Kid Mohair Open Front Cardigan
Mercy is a kid mohair cardigan with an open, easy shape for soft warmth through the body. It is made for the kind of layering that feels relaxed rather than heavy, slipping naturally over shirts, fine knits and simple everyday tops.
The front is left unfastened, so the cardigan falls with a gentle drape instead of a fixed closure. A broad neckline opens cleanly through the centre, while the dropped shoulders and loose sleeves give the piece its calm, generous outline.
The brushed mohair blend has a light halo and a warm handle without feeling dense. Because the shape is one size, the fit is deliberately roomy, with enough width to sit comfortably over other layers while still keeping a soft, refined line.

A Kid Mohair Cardigan with an Open, Relaxed Shape
Mercy is useful when you want the comfort of knitwear without a structured jacket feel. The open front gives it movement, while the generous body lets it settle easily over the layers you already wear.
There are no fastenings to interrupt the line, so the softness of the knit becomes the main detail. Worn loose, it has a gentle wrap-like quality; worn over a neat base layer, it brings texture and warmth without looking too formal.
Soft Volume Without Heavy Bulk
The dropped shoulder creates a relaxed outline, and the 44cm sleeve keeps the arm shape easy rather than tight. The cardigan has generous width through the body, yet the brushed yarn keeps it light on the wearer.
This makes Mercy a practical piece for cooler rooms, travel days and changing weather. It adds warmth where you need it, but it does not feel stiff, dense or overbuilt.
One-Size Fit and Real Measurements
The one-size shape measures 65cm in length, 70cm across the chest and 44cm through the sleeve. It is intended to feel easy and roomy, especially over a shirt, blouse or fine knit.
The wider chest gives the front panels room to fall naturally. This is why the cardigan works well as a relaxed top layer rather than a close-fitting knit.
How to Wear This Open Front Knit
Layer it over a crisp shirt for a calm everyday look, or wear it with a simple long-sleeve top when you want something softer and less tailored. The open shape also works beautifully over dresses because it adds warmth without hiding the whole outfit.
For a balanced silhouette, pair the generous upper shape with straight trousers, wide-leg trousers or a simple skirt. The result feels relaxed, polished and easy to repeat.
Care Guide for Brushed Mohair
Follow the care label first. Between wears, refresh gently and store the cardigan folded, so the knitted shape is properly supported.
When cleaning is needed, hand wash carefully in cool water with a mild wool detergent, or choose specialist dry cleaning if preferred. Do not wring. Reshape flat and dry naturally away from direct heat. The soft halo is part of the mohair character, so brush only very lightly if needed and avoid rubbing the surface.
