CHUNKY POPPY CARDIGAN | RED

The Chunky Poppy Cardigan by THEGATHER- crafted from 100% Scottish 5-gauge lambswool and knitted in Portugal, this is a slightly heavier version of their signature Poppy Cardigan.

The Chunky Poppy has become one of THEGATHER's most sought-after winter knits; the relaxed silhouette combines the warmth and texture of chunky lambswool with an easy button-front shape designed for everyday wear.

This season THEGATHER has further elevated the finishing of this piece with new casein buttons, made in England from milk protein and chosen to complement the natural fibres of the knit.

The Gather use wool that is SEDEX-certified and holds RWS certifications, ensuring thoughtful wool production.

Designed with a relaxed, slightly oversized fit and a chunky structure. THEGATHER recommend that you take your regular size for an easy everyday silhouette.

The model is 5'8" and usually wears a UK 8 - she is wearing a size S.

CARING FOR YOUR KNIT:
Did you know that wool is considered to have self-cleaning properties?  This is thanks to its natural oils that repel dirt and dust, so our advice is to regularly air your knitwear to avoid unnecessary washing.  However, when your knit does eventually need a wash, here are some helpful tips:

> Gentle hand wash in cold water
> Use an eco-friendly wool/cashmere-safe detergent and fabric softener
> Lie your knit flat to dry (resist hanging it up to maintain its fit)
> Keep away from direct sunlight while drying
