Avant Toi Laminated Needle-Punched Cashmere Cardigan in Yak
Avant Toi Laminated Needle-Punched Cashmere Cardigan in Yak
Crafted in Italy from pure lightweight cashmere, this round-neck cardigan is finished using Avant Toi’s Potala fabrication. Needle-punched floral motifs emerge through a laminated, softly weathered surface, creating dimensional texture and a subtle metallic lustre across the knit.
The Yak colourway blends taupe, ash brown, stone, charcoal, and softly faded blush tones for an atmospheric finish with artisanal depth. Designed with a round neckline, button-through front, and long sleeves, this cashmere cardigan offers an elegant alternative to a classic layer and can be worn buttoned as a knit top or open over fluid separates.

Q: What does the Yak colourway look like?
A: Yak combines taupe, ash brown, stone, charcoal, and softly muted blush floral tones for a smoky, atmospheric finish.
Q: What is the needle-punched floral effect?
A: The floral imagery is integrated into the cashmere surface through needle punching, creating textured, softly blurred motifs rather than a flat printed pattern.

A: The knit remains lightweight and soft, while the laminated finish adds subtle structure, depth, and a gentle metallic lustre to the surface.

A: Yes. Its fine gauge, round neckline, and button-through front allow it to be worn fully buttoned as a knit top or styled open as a light cardigan.
Q: Will each cardigan look exactly the same?
A: Small variations in motif placement, tonal balance, and surface texture may occur as part of the artisanal finishing process.
Q: How should I care for this cashmere cardigan?
A: Follow the specialist instructions on the care label, avoid friction against rough surfaces, and store the cardigan folded rather than hanging.
