Cable Spencer made from Dutch wool and alpaca

Sister

The Zus is an intricately knitted spencer with chevron and cable designs, made from local Dutch wool blended with soft alpaca and merino. This mix of fibers gives the Zus a unique mix of properties: the Dutch wool has a tougher appearance that is then softened by the addition of alpaca and merino. This Spencer has a V-neck and is ideal for layering.

Do you have a dog that you want to keep nice and warm this winter? Look at the 'Jaap'to buy a little matching sweater for your furry friend.

The special properties of Dutch wool and alpaca

Wool from Dutch sheep is not often seen in clothing production, even within the Netherlands. Dutch wool is characterized by a tougher appearance due to its coarser fibers and hence is seen as too rough and itchy to wear against the skin. This view has led to the devaluation of Dutch wool and the disappearance of the Dutch wool industry altogether. 

In our products, we utilize this overlooked local resource by looking for varieties with a lower itch factor as well as combining our Dutch wool with other fibers like merino and alpaca. This mix of fibers allows our products to have the traditional appearance of Dutch wool while adding a level of softness.

Additionally alpaca is hypoallergenic and has antibacterial properties so garments hardly need to be washed; airing them out is often more than enough. This way your favorite sweater will last for generations.

 Choose your color and your size

For this sweater vest, you can choose from five colours: off-white, sand, taupe, dark blue, and green. The off-white and sand are the natural colours of Dutch wool and are undyed. All yarns for our synthetic colours are washed and dyed according to the GOTS standard. This means that the amount of harmful chemicals is kept to a minimum.

This sweater vest has a V-neck.
In women's size medium, the length of the sweater vest (from the highest shoulder point) is 58 cm and the chest width is 52 cm.

In men's size medium, the length of the sweater vest (from the highest shoulder point) is 69 cm and the chest width is 54 cm.
