Polo-Neck Cable Knit Sweater in Natural Fibers

Embrace the essence of slow fashion with our  100% wool Heritage Cable-Knit Wool Tunic. Designed for the conscious wardrobe, this piece merges the structural elegance of a polo-neck with the cozy, classic style of cable-knit.

Crafted by a small group of knitting ladies high in the Andes, using traditional cable-knit techniques, the intricate textures tell a story of craftsmanship and durability. Unlike mass-produced fast fashion, this sweater is built from high-quality natural fibers that breathe with your body and soften with every wear. Whether paired with leggings for a weekend escape or tailored trousers for a polished office look, it is the ultimate “forever piece.”

• Timeless Design: Classic polo collar with a relaxed fit.

• Artisanal Texture: Heritage cable-stitching for depth and warmth.

• Sustainable Soul: Sourced ethically and made to last, reducing your fashion footprint.

Our collection of polo collar cable knit wool tunic sweaterss is grounded in a palette of “Living Neutrals,” designed to mirror the raw, unrefined beauty of the Andean landscape. Oatmeal Cream serves as the collection’s luminous foundation, offering a soft, undyed aesthetic that highlights the purity of our natural fibers. For those seeking depth, Slate provides a sophisticated, architectural grey that shifts beautifully in different lights, while Olive Green (our signature “Avocado” hue) brings a lush, botanical energy to the classic cable-knit structure. Rounding out the Earth-centered selection is Toffee, a rich, high-trend Cognac brown that exudes warmth and artisanal luxury. Together, these shades form a cohesive, interchangeable wardrobe built on the principles of longevity and quiet elegance.

FAQ:

1. How does Los Andes Shop ensure fair trade?

We work directly with artisan families in the Andes, ensuring they set their own prices. This direct partnership bypasses middle-men, ensuring ‘Dignity Woven In’ for every weaver. In the case of these Heritage Cable-Knit Wool Tunics, we looked for weeks til we found the actual knitters, not the middle person, raising the knitters’ pay per sweater by 1/3.

2. How do I care for these wool sweaters?

Carefully hand wash in cold water with a gentle detergent specifically formulated for wool.  Squeeze water out very gently (do not wring!).  Lay flat to dry.
