300g of natural softness
Zegna Baruffa's Cashwool® 1978
"Made in Italy" is a true reference in fashion, indicating craftsmanship expertise lost elsewhere. And in the wool industry, Zegna Baruffa is where it happens. They revolutionized the textile sector in the late 70s with Cashwool®, a merino wool as luminous as silk and as soft as cashmere, which we use for all our winter sweaters.
An extra-fine merino wool
Merino wool is known for its fineness, which gives it its softness and makes it so comfortable to wear against the skin. With an average diameter of about 19.5 microns, merino wool fiber is 3 times finer than wool from other sheep breeds. Still having trouble imagining this fineness? For comparison, 70 microns is the average diameter of a human hair.
Certified mulesing-free and OEKO-TEX®
Certified Responsible Wool Standard (RWS) since 2019, Zegna Baruffa uses one of the rare Australian wools guaranteed mulesing-free. This label ensures the welfare of sheep for wool production. In addition to better land management, the partner breeder commits, among other things, not to practice mulesing on their sheep.
"You don't know it,
you're already judging it!"
To properly judge a sweater, you need to know its weight and gauge. While knowing these two numbers won't have the same effect as putting on the sweater and feeling its soft knit envelope you, it's a good way to get an idea of its thickness and therefore its seasonality from a distance.
The weight
For a sweater, the weight is linked to its density. And ours has a fighting weight of 300g, which officially classifies it in the lightweight winter sweaters category.
Unofficially, a sweater of this weight is actually an all-season sweater, depending on the local climate and how you wear it: against the skin, it's ideal for mid-season temperatures of 10-15°C, over a shirt, it will accompany you all winter. You won't go trekking in Lapland with your Cashwool sweater, but in metropolitan areas it will keep you warm enough during the cold season (assuming you add a jacket or coat to go outside).
The gauge
The gauge measures the thickness of a sweater. It corresponds to the number of needles on a knitting machine that fit within one inch (2.54 cm). The higher the gauge, the finer the sweater. Our Cashwool sweater has a gauge of 14, which corresponds to a high fineness.
Traditional manufacturing in Italy
More than half a century of family knitting
It was near Florence in Italy, in the late 60s, that our sweaters' knitting workshop first started turning its needles. Nearly half a century later, this workshop has become a company specialized in knitwear and accessories. Yet, it's still the same family operating the knitting machines.
A solid and waste-free construction
To avoid significant fabric waste and achieve a better fit, all our sweaters are made using the fully-fashioned construction technique. In other words, the sweater is entirely shaped through knitting. We explain everything about the different knitting construction techniques in our blog article.
