Product Insights

The Esme 100% Merino Wool Sweater by Skall Studio is a fine rib knit that contours the body without bulk, offering high stretch and shape recovery even when sized up for a relaxed fit. Made from 17-22 micron GOTS-certified organic merino wool, it regulates temperature, resists odor, and is mulesing-free, but commands a ~$105 CAD premium over non-organic alternatives. Produced in western Ukraine using Danish wool, the sweater supports European craft economies and is rated Good overall by Good On You (5/5 for Planet). It biodegrades in soil within years and has reduced chemical residues, though requires hand washing every 5-10 wears and lay flat drying; light pilling is normal but removable with a fabric shaver. Skall Studio offers free lifetime repair, and the rib knit's memory resists bagging with proper care.

Jean-Louis W.

Feels wonderful. The medium was too large on me. The small fits like a glove. Look forward wearing this top with skirts and pants.
