A quick look at Merino wool knitwear
Merino wool is a high-quality natural fibre that is ideal for ladies’ knitwear.
The lightweight wool is sourced from Merino sheep and is renowned for its warmth and luxurious softness that is gentle against the skin. The fine fibres are strong and durable, and offer a comfortable wear unlike other wool types that can sometimes cause irritation or discomfort.
In addition to this, Merino wool has antimicrobial properties which help prevent the growth of odour-causing bacteria, making it a great choice for clothing that you’ll want to wear again and again with low maintenance. All of its excellent properties make Merino wool perfect for high-quality, long-lasting garments such as Merino jumpers and cardigans.
And, just in case you need any more convincing, ladies’ Merino wool knitwear can also save you hours of ironing as they don’t crease much!

Jumpers, also known as sweaters, are a great choice for both casual and formal occasions.

Ladies’ Merino jumpers offer a chic look that can be dressed up or down depending on the occasion.

Merino wool cardigans are another popular layering piece, providing warmth and comfort when worn over a stylish top such as a blouse. Choose between regular, longline or short Merino cardigan styles that are available in an array of colours - ideal for complementing every garment in your wardrobe.
Why not consider pairing a Merino turtleneck sweater with a matching Merino cardigan to create a fashionable look that will keep you extra warm?
Finally, waistcoats are a sleeveless style of ladies' knitwear, often worn as a layering piece over a blouse or shirt. Our Merino wool waistcoats feature a V-neck style with front patch pockets and colour-coordinated buttons to add a touch of sophistication to your outfit.

Styling tips for ladies’ Merino wool jumpers
Merino wool jumpers are versatile and classic pieces of clothing that can be styled in a variety of ways.

Find some inspiration with our favourite styling tips for merino wool jumpers:
Choose comfortable layers:
Layer your Merino wool jumper over a collared shirt or blouse to create a smart, sophisticated look. You could even wear a knitted cardigan or a thick jacket over the top for added warmth.
Dress up with a skirt:
Your woollen jumper will pair nicely with any skirt for a wonderfully elegant outfit, ideal for dressing up. Choose a knee-length pencil skirt for a classier appearance or a longline cotton pull-on skirt for a more casual, comfortable feel.
To create a polished silhouette and enhance your body’s proportions, you can tuck your Merino wool jumper into the skirt and even add a belt to define your waistline. Or, simply leave your jumper untucked for a relaxed and comfortable outfit. Pairing with shoes such as loafers or low-heeled pumps will give an effortless yet stylish outfit that we just love!
Keep it classic with straight-leg trousers:
The most versatile option for any occasion has to be pairing one of our ladies’ Merino wool jumpers with classic, straight-leg trousers.
The trousers should sit at the waist and fall straight down from the hip, creating a sleek appearance for a truly timeless outfit that can be worn again and again.
Accessorise with a scarf:
Accessories can make all the difference when it comes to styling your Merino wool jumper.
Colourful scarves are an easy way to add a splash of colour and a touch of class. Go for a scarf in a colour that complements your jumper to create a cohesive outfit - a silk scarf gives a lightweight accessory whereas a thick wool scarf will give additional warmth.
Add some jewellery:
A statement necklace, delicate bracelet, or bold earrings can add some sparkle and shine to your knitted jumper outfit. Choosing a neutral-toned jumper will draw all the attention to your favourite jewellery.
Go for a good fit:
Make sure your Merino wool jumper fits well and feels comfortable. Look for styles that offer a relaxed fit that allows for unrestricted movement. Don’t forget Country Collection offers a No Time Limit Product Guarantee, meaning that you can order your jumper and return it free of charge if it’s not perfect for you.
But most importantly… Remember there is no right and wrong way when it comes to styling your wool jumper! Wear it in a way that makes you look and feel good, as confidence is key to perfecting any outfit.

How to care for merino wool knitwear
Hand washing your merino wool is typically recommended, but we have ensured our range of knitwear at Country Collection is machine washable for your convenience. To wash your Merino wool jumpers, pop them on a gentle cycle in your washing machine at 40°C.
It is also important to remember not to use fabric conditioner and direct heat (such as ironing or tumble drying) when caring for your Merino wool garments, as this will affect the quality and lifespan of the natural fibres.
When storing, lay your Merino wool knitwear flat instead of hanging them to avoid the fabric stretching and misshaping. If there is any lint or pilling on the garment, this can be easily removed with a lint roller or pill shaver.
Ladies’ Merino wool jumpers, cardigans, polo tops, tunics and waistcoats are all made to last, but proper care will help to ensure that they remain soft, comfortable and beautiful for as long as possible.
