Genevieve Sweeney Maddis Lambswool & Cashmere Cardigan in Black
A modern classic, our Maddis cardigan features a contemporary, slightly cropped shape, while the fully-fashioned, seamless design guarantees a perfect fit.
THE YARN
For the Maddis, Genevieve blends Italian lambswool and cashmere yarns for a sumptuous hand-feel that’s lightweight enough to be worn all-year-round. Presented in a stunning black blend, it’s accented with a confetti-inspired scattering of vibrant yellow tweeds.
Both our lambswool and cashmere are certified for their sustainable provenances. RWS (Responsible Wool Standards) lambswool means that not only the sheep that produce it, but the land on which they graze, is actively protected. Likewise, SFA (Sustainable Fibre Alliance) certified cashmere ensures high animal welfare standards, reduced environmental impact and a more secure livelihood for herders.

THE DETAILS
Here at GS, we see buttons as an integral part of any cardigan. Ours are made from sustainable Codelite and custom-dyed to a deep black by Courtney & Co. – the last button makers in the UK.
The buttons are made from Codelite – a completely natural and biodegradable product created by curing and hardening the naturally occurring proteins found in milk. Codelite first became a staple of button manufacturing in the early twentieth century, and by reviving it Courtney & Co. commit to reducing the amount of plastic within the industry.
SUSTAINABILITY CREDENTIALS
The Maddis is crafted by a family-run Scottish mill that places craftsmanship, technology and sustainability at the heart of its core values. Genevieve works with this mill not only because it strives for the highest quality manufacturing standards, but does so in the most environmentally responsible ways. A world leader in the production of carded yarns, by using only 100% renewable energy it reduces its CO2 emissions to zero. Additionally, the sweater’s fully-fashioned design ensures as little yarn waste as possible.
STYLE ADVICE
With its uplifting hue and boxy silhouette, the Maddis is a versatile cardigan you’ll reach for time and time again. Complement its slightly cropped shape by pairing it with sharp tailored trousers, or let it add textural contrast to a black leather skirt.

I have two pieces of beautiful knitwear from Genevieve Sweeney now and couldn’t be happier. The quality is excellent and such unusual and interesting yarns and colour ways. Love it!

I ordered the Alloa Cardigan Lambswool Magenta this time and it arrived just a few days after order. I already own two other items from Genevieve and feel really special every time I wear them. This cardigan is no different - the colour is so rich and the texture soft and velvety. Definitely worth treating yourself.

These socks are amazingly soft, warm, well designed, and beautiful colors… will definitely be ordering more! Plus super professional service. Thank you, Genevieve for creating a superior product that definitely stands out for quality.

I took out a sock subscription for my Dad as a Christmas gift - he has been thoroughly delighted with his new socks each month. Great quality, beautiful designs and they wash really well. Highly recommend.

The most ridiculously cosy jumper I've ever owned. I haven't taken it off since I bought it!

Bought several pairs of incredibly lovely socks from Genevieve, some for me and some for gifts, and have been more than happy with them. Great colours and fabulous quality. Would not hesitate to recommend them, all beautifully presented. Will definitely buy more products from her in the future.

The quality and style of Geneviene's knitwear is outstanding. Beautiful, timeless pieces made honouring traditional methods and materials. I've splurged on a few sweaters and socks and they are now staple items in my wardrobe. Treat yourself, Geneviene's stuff is so worth it!
