Are lambswool jumpers warm?
Lambswool is a soft, natural fibre that provides excellent warmth and insulation, making it a popular material for women’s jumpers. The fibres of lambswool are typically finer than other types of wool so they can trap more air and are able to retain heat better, making lambswool jumpers ideal for staying warm, especially on cooler days.
Are lambswool jumpers itchy?
Generally, lambswool is considered to be one of the softest and most comfortable types of wool, and it is often used to make clothing items such as jumpers, scarves, and blankets that are designed to be worn directly against the skin. However, it very much depends on individual preferences and skin sensitivities as some people may experience some itchiness or irritation when wearing woollen garments.
If you have sensitive skin, you may find that wearing a lightweight underlayer beneath your lambswool jumper is beneficial to provide a barrier between the jumper and your skin.
How do you wash lambswool jumpers?
Lambswool jumpers should be washed with care in order to keep them looking and feeling their best. Here are some simple steps to follow when washing your lambswool jumpers…
Before washing, make sure to check the care label on the jumper to see if it requires special washing instructions. As a general rule of thumb, most lambswool garments, including lambswool jumpers available at Country Collection, can follow the below guidelines:
1. Hand wash or machine wash on cool, gentle cycle: Lambswool jumpers can either be hand washed or machine washed on a delicate cycle using cold water (no more than 30°C) and a gentle wool detergent. Be sure not to expose the garment to hot water that’s warmer than 30°C as this can shrink it. Do not use fabric softeners as they can damage the natural wool fibres and reduce the softness of the material.
2. Do not wring or twist: To retain the shape of your lambswool jumper, do not wring or twist it after washing as this can cause it to misshapen.
3. Lay flat to dry: Once washed, lay the lambswool jumper flat on a clean, dry towel and reshape it to its original shape. Avoid hanging it to dry as this can cause it to stretch and lose its shape.
4. Store properly: When completely dry, your lambswool jumper should be stored flat in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and heat sources. Avoid hanging the garment in your wardrobe and instead keep folded on a shelf or drawer.
How to style your lambswool jumper
Lambswool jumpers are versatile pieces of clothing that can be styled in many different ways to suit different occasions, weather conditions and personal preferences.
Dress it up
Lambswool jumpers can be dressed up by pairing them with a skirt or smart dark-coloured straight leg trousers and small heels. Add a statement necklace or some elegant earrings to complete the look.
Make it casual
For a more casual look, pair your lambswool jumper with a pair of trousers and flat shoes. Go for a good pair of quality denim jeans for a more polished appearance or a comfortable pair of pull-on trousers for a relaxed look.
Layer it
Layering your lambswool jumper over a shirt or blouse can add a stylish twist to your outfit while keeping you warm. Keep the collar untucked for a smart, sophisticated look and consider adding a jacket or coat over the top to keep the chill off.
Accessorise it
Accessorising your lambswool jumper with a belt, scarf, or jewellery can refine your outfit to create a real chic impression. Tuck your jumper into a quality leather belt to help define your waistline and elongate your legs. Pairing your jumper with a silk scarf can add a pop of colour and flair to your look, while a warm knitted scarf will complement your outfit when the weather is cooler.
Benefits of lambswool jumpers
Lambswool fibres are naturally hypoallergenic and resistant to dust mites which makes it a wonderful material for garments.
Like all wool, it is naturally breathable with moisture-wicking properties that help regulate body temperature to keep you comfortable throughout the day.
Its exceptional insulating qualities also provide added warmth, making it a great choice for jumpers to be worn on chillier days.
Lambswool vs merino vs cashmere
When it comes to choosing the right type of knitwear, the fibre used can make a big difference in terms of comfort, warmth, and style. Lambswool, Merino, and Cashmere are three luxurious, high-quality natural fibres that are commonly used for knitwear such as jumpers and cardigans.
Each of these fibres has its own unique properties but they all share similar qualities…
Lambswool comes from the first shearing of young lambs which is a softer, finer wool than that of older sheep. Merino wool comes from the Merino sheep that provides an even finer fibre that is less coarse and will generally cause less irritation to sensitive skin than other types of wool. While lambswool tends to be warmer in comparison to Merino wool, Merino wool is far more breathable and allows for better temperature regulation.
Cashmere is a natural animal hair fibre that comes from the soft undercoat of cashmere goats, found only in certain parts of the world. The fine, lightweight wool is incredibly warm and widely considered to be one of the softest and most luxurious natural fibres available. However, due to its rarity and complex production process, it is a precious fibre that tends to have a higher price tag. Many brands offer a more affordable alternative with a quality cashmere blend that retains similar properties.
Country Collection offers a wide range of quality knitwear for women in sizes XS to XL, including Lambswool jumpers and cardigans, Merino wool jumpers, and Cashmere Cotton garments that promise comfort and style for your wardrobe.
