Matteo is a long sleeve crew neck jumper made using Papi Fabio's (Est. 1890) Italian spun 70% super-fine merino wool and 30% silk blended yarn.
This round-neck sweater is a classic staple with elegant fashioning and stitch detail around the neck and shoulder, French shoulder and ribbed cuffs and hem. Lightweight and crease-resistant, this luxuriously soft fabric makes Matteo stylish and practical for travelling or long days at the office.
The yarn has an elegant drape, and the quiet luxury of the silk yarn's lustre makes this an elevated round neck jumper suitable for dressing up with tailored trousers or wearing every day with chinos.
Although light and soft, we rigorously tested the yarn to ensure it delivers outstanding durability, softness, strength and versatility in all temperatures.

The benefits of merino silk knitwear
The long fibre length of silk gives this merino blend a smooth, luxurious finish which feels soft and comfortable, and adds to the fabric’s strength. It is also breathable and naturally water-repellent, with the ability to wick moisture away from your skin, leaving you cool and dry.
