Cashmere Herringbone Sweater

About this find

The Cashmere Herringbone Sweater from Everlane takes the classic cashmere sweater and gives it a cozier shape. Dropped shoulders create a relaxed silhouette, with the shoulder seam sitting lower on the arm. It is a simple pullover design, so the details you notice are the roomy shoulders and the knit itself.

The knit has a herringbone texture, a pattern of small angled lines that gives the fabric more depth than a flat, plain knit. Up close you can see the pattern in the surface, while from a distance it reads as a quiet, subtle texture that does not compete with the rest of your outfit.

This sweater is made from a blend of certified responsibly-sourced and recycled cashmere. Cashmere is a soft natural fiber, and using recycled cashmere in the blend means some of the material comes from fiber that already exists. That gives you a classic cashmere sweater with a thoughtful story behind its yarn.

Throw it on and let your favorite white tee peek out from the bottom just a bit. The dropped shoulders leave the upper body roomy, which makes layering over a thin tee simple. Pair it with jeans or trousers you already own, and the herringbone texture does the work of keeping a plain outfit interesting.
