I count myself lucky to have found four decent cashmere v-necks. One from Paul Stuart in maroon, one from Brooks in navy blue, two from Alan Paine before they became crappy: one in navy, the other in grey. I love pulling on the Paul Stuart with a white Brooks button-down and rumpled chinos to go food shopping.
Now, try and find a really good cashmere crewneck (I've not yet looked for a cardigan). As Conrad had it - The Horror! The Horror!
I'll have to start thinking Zegna or Brioni. Once I start making money again.
You'll see this Chinese-made cashmere doing the rounds. Don't be tempted. A decent merino or lambswool jumper will be much better value.
I do rate Peter Scott!
