The Soft As Cashmere Irish Wool Robe

This is the robe knitted exclusively for Hammacher Schlemmer in County Mayo, Ireland, with ultrafine merino wool to produce the soft, velvety hand of cashmere. Selected by hand from the sheep’s innermost fleece, and long prized for next-to-skin softness, this merino wool is spun into 5-gauge yarn that provides the same feel as cashmere while retaining the durability of wool. Ideal for four-season wear, the robe is lightweight and comfortably breathable, never scratchy or bulky and always in style for an early breakfast or a late-night digestif in front of the fire. The traditional cable stitch pattern is said to represent fisherman’s ropes and has become as an enduring symbol of Ireland’s maritime tradition. With long sleeves, two front pockets, and a cable knit belt at the waist. Machine wash cold and dry flat. Rose. Women’s sizes S, M, L, and XL; length 40"-43" (5 oz.)
