Our turtleneck is long and sleek, perfect for layering. We found this amazing wool fabric from Italy, woven like a spider web, so delicate it is beautiful and tough at the same time, it is quite sheer amd a great layering piece. This item will need to be hand washed in cold water. We also made the turtleneck in our favorite Hemp/organic cotton jersey in cream and black. As soon as the weather changed we are wearing this as soon as it comes out of the wash. This soft fabric is pre-washed to avoid pesky shrinkage.
