Needed: warm but not massively thick/heavy jumper!

[Shinyandnew1]

I have been wearing a lovely jumper that bought from Gap before Covid loads recently as it’s so lovely warm but still vaguely smart (well better than pyjamas or a hoodie!). It looks like a wool jumper but it’s 75% acrylic and really light. It’s perfect-just a normal jumper-no stupid big shoulders or wide flappy sleeves or buttons and is a decent length so it doesn’t stop just under my boobs!

Has anyone seem anything similar anywhere?! I can’t find that same one on the Gap website or on eBay/Vinted which is annoying.

For warm but light I always buy cashmere

Wool will always be warmer than acrylic (for the same thickness) in my experience. Merino or cashmere are very warm even in thinner fabrics.

Was also going to recommend cashmere, you can buy great stuff secondhand

I love these from matalan for being thin but really warm as i hate chunky clothes. My mum and i now have a few different ones.

Me three! I just bought a beautiful 'new with tags' cashmere jumper on Vinted. So looking forward to it arriving. It will be lightweight, but soft and cosy.

And DD recommends merino!
