Utterly the single-most beautiful cardigan. Fabulous paua buttons, gorgeous colours and the most amazing feel of lightweight warmth that you will never want to take off. A cardigan that will 'look its best' for years.
This MerinoMink cardigan - The Shell - has proven to be a perennial favourite and is now available in the beautiful new colour of
peacock. The Shell Cardigan is a wardrobe-must for the discerning woman who keeps one particularly beautiful cardigan that will take her anywhere.
A second brand to have alongside the very lovely stable of Lothlorian knitwear.
Both brands 40% possum, 50% merino. However where the Lothlorian has 10% nylon (very easy care!) the more tailored MerinoMink line from Snowy Peak has 10% silk (hand wash). Air the cardigan each time it is worn and you'll not think of laundering.
I chose Shell for the gorgeous colours, great shape and, most of all of course, for the stunning paua shell buttons. Available in three colours: the new peacock (image to follow), indigo (main picture), and graphite (charcoal). A very, very beautiful garment. Shorter, shaped fit.
NB Sadly, the Shell is no longer being made in the teal colour as depicted in the middle of the graphic here.
Please note that Indigo in medium and large are now out of stock, and out of production.
Indigo, teal (no longer available), graphite.
