Old Joe - Boucle Alpaka Zip Cardigan
Crafted from an original blend of alpaca and bouclé yarns, this knit showcases beautiful depth and tonal variation throughout its surface. The zip-front design and rounded pockets evoke the charm of vintage athletic sweaters, adding a timeless, classic touch.
The fabric is knitted on a 3-gauge machine using a combination of yarns—over 70% alpaca blended with a bold, large-loop fancy yarn, arranged in a plaited, half-cardigan construction. The fancy yarn features subtle, nep-like color shifts, further enhancing the knit’s rich, textured appearance.
Despite its lightweight feel, the piece maintains a substantial thickness and a well-structured silhouette, offering both comfort and presence. This unique balance of heritage-inspired detailing and elevated material expression makes it a standout addition to any wardrobe.
