About this piece
Lora is a merino turtleneck with a distinctive double collar that can be worn rolled up or buttoned up. The body is loose and has two lengths - the front is deliberately shortened with a notched lapel and the back is extended. The slits at the sides give a good show off of waist pants and longer fancy tricks under a sweater. You'll appreciate this sweater in the hardest of cold, when it will keep you wonderfully warm, but you won't sweat or overheat in it, thanks to the thermoregulating properties of merino. Merino extra fine yarn is easy to care for and will last you for years, just like this timeless sweater turtleneck cut. We've chosen beautiful shades of merino yarn - so that the texture of natural wool is acknowledged - the highlights, the wisps, the stitches of the knit - we love it. The turtleneck is complete with a label made of washable paper. In two sizes: XS/S and M/L.
Which size will fit you?
Enter your body measurements in centimetres. We will compare them with the measurements of this cut. We assume you will wear a T-shirt, shirt or light turtleneck underneath. The fabric is slightly stretchy, we take that into account.
How to measure yourself
Bust: tape measure horizontally around the fullest part of your chest.
Waist: at the narrowest point, usually just above the navel.
Hips: around the fullest part of your bottom, feet together.
Height: without shoes. We use it to estimate the length of the trouser legs.
Saved measurements help others too: when you rate your purchase later, we use them anonymously to recommend sizes to customers with a similar figure. Nobody else will see your name or your measurements.

Svetr jsem dávala do košíku už snad dva roky a vždycky jsem ztroskotala na tom, že jsem se nemohla rozhodnout, jakou barvu vybrat. Pak jsem uviděla tuto a hned byl můj. Je úžasný! Střih, materiál, barva...vše.Customer L. K.

Making a YP sweater
It all starts here: laying out the pattern in the software. Pure pixel art :)
The program goes onto a Japanese knitting machine by floppy disk. A lovely piece from the nineties.
Spools of Superfine merino wool. It simply doesn't get any better!
The bobbins of wool are threaded into the machine's guides. To a layman, a nuclear power plant control room, an Airbus cockpit and a knitting machine are equally baffling.
And off we go!
After knitting, every piece has to be steamed
So the fibres soften and hold their shape better
Straighten it, check everything is as it should be, and the sweater starts to take shape.
The knitting machine produces an almost finished piece, but some parts such as the neckline and armholes have to be trimmed by hand.
Merino is a very expensive material, so working with it takes a precise hand, a lot of experience and steady nerves. Measure twice, cut once.
And now the sewing! In this case on a machine similar to the one we use in our workshop for dresses and t-shirts.
What does this machine have in common with Moravian plum brandy?
It makes chains! In Moravia plenty of people can handle a glass of plum brandy, but only skilled hands can handle a linking machine. The workshop owner sighs that there are no schools for it any more and interest in handcraft is fading.
Stitch by stitch... aiming precisely so the pieces of the sweater join up perfectly.
We visit the workshop regularly and discuss every pattern and every adjustment.

Wool is a luxurious natural fiber. It contains lanolin, which provides natural protection. Woolen garments therefore don’t need to be washed as often as those made from other materials. It’s enough to store them properly, air them out frequently, and a quick pass with a steamer iron works well to refresh them.
Wool deserves this care. You’ll be rewarded with its durability, excellent performance, breathability, and natural temperature regulation.
If you do decide to wash wool, soak it in lukewarm water with a drop of wool-specific laundry gel. Do not distort the garment in any way after washing it this way. Simply use a towel to squeeze out the excess water and let it dry flat. A clothes drying rack works well, as it ensures airflow even from the underside.
