Nice non-wool jumpers

I would love to be able to wear wool, but because of eczema I just can’t, even a little bit of added wool sets my skin off.
Could you please share your nicest non-wool jumpers with me?

I got one of these 2 years ago which is still almost like new; I got a 2nd colour last year, and am tempted to get a third.

Superdry have a few 100% cotton styles.

Have a look at these, I get lots of jumpers every year from here. I can't wear wool just because it makes me itch terribly.

Swaledale Woollens are made locally in Yorkshire, from local wool. They are on the more expensive side, but I've had mine for over 10 years and it still looks as good as new:

I really sympathise, I'm the same, even a cardigan with a small amount of wool, worn over cotton layers will cause itching. Acrylic is irritating too so I tend to go for 100% cotton. Seasalt have a couple that are nice, called Makers and Stone Chat. There aren't a lot of the Makers jumpers left now, but they often come up new or as new on Ebay, as do previous years styles, so it's worth looking. They come up big, but wash really well. I recently bid for a cream and navy cotton fairisle Seasalt jumper that I'm pleased with.
White Stuff have Olive cotton jumpers ( style name not colour!) , a bit thin but good colours and they layer nicely. Their Nep jumpers are artificial but look a bit tweedy and are warm. Fatface also have cotton jumpers sometimes but the cut of their jumpers isn't great.
Boden sometimes have cotton jumpers but they tend to have odd details like puffy sleeves.
It's worth trawling through the m&s website though often cotton rich means they've added a sneaky bit of wool!
Good luck, I'm sorry I haven't put links. I hope someone adds some more suggestions that I haven't looked at yet.
