Ada Sweater Vest, Ivory

Soft and versatile, the Ada Sweater Vest in warm, off-white ivory is the neutral every wardrobe craves. Its boxy silhouette and chunky rib hem sit comfortably at the waist, making it easy to style over Saywood favourites like our Rosa Dress, layered with our Joni Blouse, or paired with our tailored Amelia Trousers.

Made in London from 100% supersoft lambswool spun in Aberdeenshire, the Ada Sweater Vest feels as cosy as it looks. The yarn’s natural heathered tones give depth to the creamy base, while its thermoregulating properties make it a practical wardrobe essential for those in-between seasons.

If you know Saywood, then you know we’re all about the thoughtful details. That means a double-layered neckline able to withstand multiple wears and washes. A half jersey, half purl body for visual and textural interest. A contrast dewy, moss-green neckline stitch adds a subtle, modern detail to this classic knit. With its heathered tones and lived-in softness, our Ada Sweater Vest feels like a long-time favourite from the very first wear.

Clothing Care | Wash less, love always

As a humble natural fibre, wool is prone to pilling, but it is easily removed with a gentle comb. Once it has pilled, good quality wool won’t pill again, and only minutely. We recommend storing in an airtight bag when not in regular use to protect against moths.

Wool is naturally odour-resistant and shouldn’t need to be washed more than once a season when aired regularly. Spot clean marks by lightly brushing, or with a gentle wool detergent, and when it does need a wash, follow our care advice:

- Cold handwash or dry clean only
- Low iron
- Do not bleach
- Do not tumble dry
- Use gentle wool detergent only
- Reshape whilst damp
- Dry flat away from direct sunlight and heat

Sustainably crafted with care for you and our planet.

Our Ada Sweater Vest is crafted from 100% supersoft lambswool, spun in Aberdeenshire at a family-run heritage mill that has been perfecting its craft since 1798. Using traditional machines over 50 years old, the yarn is ring-spun to create its heathered tones – a natural colour variance that gives each piece depth, character and nuance.

Wool itself is one of nature’s cleverest fibres: biodegradable, regenerative and naturally breathable. It’s thermoregulating, keeping your body at just the right temperature, and odour-resistant too, meaning it needs less frequent washing. Less washing means less water – kinder to the planet, and to your knitwear.

Each Ada Vest is expertly knitted in London by Knitster, just a stone’s throw from Saywood HQ, a small, female-founded factory with only five knitting machines.

Expertly designed and made in limited runs, every piece is as thoughtful as it is timeless.
