Contents: 55% Baby Alpaca, 21% Wool, 24% Poly

Construction: Knit

Fabric Weight: Midweight

Sheerness: Not Sheer

Stretch: Lots of Stretch

Care: Wear more, wash less. We highly recommend taking your knits to an environmentally-friendly dry cleaner once a season - unless you love shrunken sweaters. Also opt for an eco-friendly fabric spray to freshen your knit between wears.
All sweaters pill no matter what, so have a sweater stone or fabric shaver ready. Always fold sweaters instead of hanging them, since hanging will warp the fabric over time.

Made in: Peru

B | Moderate
Incorporates renewable materials or low-impact practices but lacks complete traceability or full optimization in sourcing and production.

Landfill time: Natural fiber portion (Alpaca/Wool): In ideal, aerobic (oxygen-rich) composting conditions:
~3–12 months (especially when undyed, untreated, and pure)
In typical landfill or anaerobic environments:
~1–5 years (due to compacted soil, lack of oxygen, and potential fabric finishes)
Synthetic Portion (Polyesteramide, Acrylic, etc.): 40–200 years depending on oxygen exposure and material structure

What We Love:

Alpacas roam freely in the Peruvian Highlands; shorn once a year in spring following humane protocols from the Ministry of Agriculture.
Local farm-to-garment or vertically integrated supply chains reduce emissions.
Natural fibers regulate temperature, resist odor, and offer long-lasting wear.
Some synthetics are recycled, slightly reducing virgin material use.

What We Don't Love:

Synthetic fibers greatly extend landfill life and reduce compostability.
Blends cannot be easily recycled or biodegraded.
Synthetic content contributes to microplastic pollution.
Recycled content, while better than virgin, still has end-of-life limitations.

Designed with an oversized fit for that slouchy, lived-in vibe. Love a roomy, layer-friendly silhouette? Stick with your usual size. Prefer something more tailored? Size down. This alpaca blend has beautiful drape and stretch—moves with you either way.

The Chesapeake Fair Isle palette is earthy and muted—cozy-vintage, not holiday sweater. Pair it with black jeans and ankle boots for effortless weekend style, or layer it over a slip dress with sneakers for high-low contrast. The ribbed detailing and pockets keep it casual enough to wear on repeat all season.

Absolutely. The brushed alpaca yarn feels cloud-like against your skin—none of that scratchy wool texture. High baby alpaca content makes it naturally silky and lightweight despite being a midweight knit.

Yes. Cozy without bulk. In fall, wear it as your outer layer over tees and denim. In winter, layer it under a wool coat or puffer—the oversized cut makes it easy. The alpaca-wool blend regulates temperature naturally, so you stay warm without overheating indoors.
