YONETOMI NEW BASIC / Rigid Cashmere Knit Pullover Garment Dyed

YONETOMI NEW BASIC
This knitwear project by Yonetomi aims to create basics that complement the “new normal” in daily life. With thoughtful details and subtle arrangements made possible by being a factory brand, they propose outfits for everyday wear in contemporary life.

Durable Cashmere Knit Cardigan
This cashmere knit cardigan is designed to be worn comfortably in everyday settings, evolving to fit your body like denim over time. By using a high-twist cashmere yarn and knitting it meticulously over time, it achieves a tough and durable texture that defies traditional expectations of cashmere sweaters.

This fabric is also hand-washable at home. Unlike typical cashmere, which is often seen as difficult to care for, this material is created with a unique interpretation that allows for the natural softness of cashmere to emerge with repeated washes.

Attention to Yarn Quality
The cardigan uses a high-twist cashmere yarn that is not typically employed in soft cashmere sweaters. This custom yarn, twisted to the breaking point, provides exceptional durability and is resistant to pilling—an understated but notable feature.

Enjoy the Aging Process
The fabric undergoes product dyeing, which softens the originally rigid cashmere, creating a fluffier appearance. As you wash it repeatedly, you will experience the unique softness and smooth texture characteristic of cashmere, allowing you to enjoy your own personalized cashmere knit.

The simple crew neck design features ribbed cuffs and hem for a snug fit, adding definition to the silhouette.

Versatile Silhouette for Layering
With a relaxed silhouette that provides ample room, this piece works well as a standalone item or as an inner layer under outerwear. It combines a relaxed fit with a touch of elegance, making it a refined addition to your wardrobe.
