Warm wool cardigan with cotton lining.
Sheep wool cardigan with black cotton jersey lining. Made in anthracite base, but with multi-color stripes in a block pattern in red, white and blue.
This vest is fully lined with a thin, comfortable, soft, stretchy cotton lining, which makes the vest cooler than Shakaloha's fleece-lined vests. This striking cardigan is therefore very suitable for people who get too hot quickly. This is a men's/unisex cardigan and can therefore also be worn by women. In addition, the TicTac vest is also available in a women's model, in light gray-multi color.
The cardigan has a high collar, a zip-off hood and two side pockets; these are also all cotton lined. This colorful cardigan is great to wear as an in-between jacket in spring and autumn.
Hand-knitted in Nepal and fair trade.
On request, this model is available in size S and size 3XL, please contact our customer service.

Maintenance
Wool is a great material for making clothes because it is antibacterial and odor resistant. Woolen clothing therefore does not need to be washed often. Hang the garment outside occasionally to freshen it up. If you still want to wash the garment, we recommend Texelana Wool Detergent . Never rub hard when washing by hand to prevent felting. Always look at the label in the garment for washing instructions. Always let woolen clothing lie flat to dry.
Store woolen clothes
We recommend that you store your woolen clothing clean, possibly with a bag of lavender; this keeps the moths at bay. It is also best to store woolen clothing lying down, so that the elasticity of the wool is not affected.
Pills and fluff
Wool can pill or pill due to use. This has nothing to do with the quality of the wool. Pilling is a natural phenomenon that is mainly caused by friction. Wool consists of many hairs with a natural frizz (curl). Friction can cause the wool to pill and felt. When felting, the hairs join together due to friction. In fact, every movement causes friction. You often find the lint/pills on the sleeves and under the armpits.
New clothing may sometimes have some loose hairs left behind after the weaving and knitting process.
Unfortunately, pills and lint on your beautiful (merino) woolen clothing cannot be prevented. We have some tips on how to delay this process somewhat and how to remove the lint and pills. For this information we refer to our blog.
