Two years ago, I launched the Alva cardigan; it quickly became a bestseller and a much-loved style!
It has been incredible and honouring to receive photos and comments from customers about how the Alva cardigan has become a seasonless staple in their wardrobe.
“Never go anywhere without a Genevieve Sweeney cardigan” Dana, customer review who is wearing the Alva below.
As featured this month in the Telegraph Magazine in
“Why a long knit will instantly revive your late summer wardrobe” the Alva lambswool blue marl.
“I’m also a fan of the chunky knit belted over a summer dress and trainers, or insouciantly layered over a gathered midi or pencil skirt. To add interest, look for a marl knit with flecks of different colours, such as Genevieve Sweeney’s Alva design, or a textured cable style. “I am never without it in the summer,” Sweeney says of the cardigan spun from Scottish lambswool. “When the wind blows on a sunny beach day, it’s there for you. The cardigan can be casually shrugged on over a dress; it livens up a classic white T-shirt and jeans by adding a pop of colour; and provides an extra layer when travelling or stuck under air con at work.”
As Julia from Stylonylon shows above, it is such a versatile, seasonless style that can be effortlessly worn throughout the seasons.
” I am the proud owner of the ALVA lambswool cardigan in a drift grey colour.
The cardigan is beautifully crafted, stylish and very soft to the touch. It feels like wearing a precious piece of a lambswool jewel. I’ll be sure to buy another fine piece of GS knitted wear, as the quality of the cardigan I can’t get enough.
