Ada Sweater Vest, Midnight Navy

​Quietly distinctive, endlessly wearable and made to last. Our Ada Sweater Vest in deep sea navy is a timeless addition to your wardrobe. A straight, boxy fit and ribbed hem create a neat silhouette that layers as seamlessly over our Rosa and Etta dresses as it does over our Joni or Marie blouses. The high, round neckline is designed to hold its structure, wear after wear, and a fine moss-green contrast stitch traces the ribbed neck in a playfully elegant detail that nods to the meeting of sea and land.

Spun in Aberdeenshire from the softest 100% lambswool and knitted locally in London, this piece marries Scottish heritage yarn with contemporary craft. Naturally thermoregulating fibres make it versatile across the seasons, whether worn solo or layered. With subtle texture from half jersey and purl stitches and a heathered melange finish, our Ada Sweater Vest carries a lived-in softness that feels like a long-time favourite from the very first wear.

Fit | True to size

Cardigan is a relaxed, boxy style that fits with ease around the body. The hem finishes just below the top hip, covering your trouser line.

Composition: 100% lambswool

Made in England, London, by Knitster

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.
