Women's Merino Cashmere Balaclava and Neck Warmer

Made in England, Allegra is a seamless knitted balaclava that offers the perfect blend of minimalist style, practicality, and comfort.

Crafted from a luxurious blend of 50% cashmere and 50% ultra-fine merino wool sourced from Papi Fabio, Italy (Estd. 1890), this versatile knitted hood provides superior warmth, softness, and durability, making it an ideal accessory for colder days or outdoor pursuits.

A fine rib trim frames the face, with chunkier ribbing throughout the hood for added texture and structure. A fine rib at the hem ensures a snug, comfortable fit around the neck.

Designed for versatility, it can be worn as a balaclava, neck warmer, or hood, making it easy to adapt to various outfits and conditions. Whether layered under a jacket for extra warmth or worn as a chic, standalone piece, this balaclava is an essential addition to any winter wardrobe.

Consider These Pieces

Merino Wool Yarn

Exceptionally fine and naturally intelligent, merino wool is prized for its ability to regulate temperature while remaining soft against the skin. Designed by nature to adapt, it provides warmth in cooler conditions and breathability when temperatures rise.

We source our chunky merino from Peru and our extra-fine merino is supplied by industry favourites Zegna Baruffa (Est. 1850) and Lanerossi (Est. 1817).

Benefits of Merino Wool

Moisture-wicking fibres keep you fresh, dry, and comfortable.

Light yet warm, with natural strength and shape retention.

Ultra-fine fibres feel exceptionally soft against sensitive skin.

Made in our Leicestershire Factory

This piece is made in our Leicestershire factory by experienced knitters working at the centre of England’s long-established knitwear industry. The site has been integral to the development of our wool and cashmere collections, where attention to finish and consistency is essential.

Because we own and run the factory ourselves, we are closely involved at every stage of production. This hands-on approach allows us to control quality and materials, resulting in knitwear made in England that is built to last and offered with a clear, direct connection to the factory floor.
