Cashmere Bréidín Sweater
The verdict
Fit
Crew necks with cable knit typically sit closer to body. Expect a classic, structured silhouette with moderate stretch from the cable pattern.
Quality
Cashmere with cable-knit detail, machine-finished. The aran/cable pattern adds visual interest but no durability premium; same fiber resilience as straight cashmere.
Price check
At $535, you're paying a slight premium for the cable pattern over flat cashmere. Fair pricing for the added detail, though not dramatically different in value from simpler cashmeres at $495.
Best for
Buyers who want cashmere with visible pattern and don't mind machine finishing; classic look at near-premium pricing.
Care
Hand-wash or dry-clean; be gentle with cable stitches when wet to avoid distortion.

What owners report about Inis Meáin sweaters
Forum members on Styleforum rate Inis Meáin among the best knitwear they own: every piece is knitted in Ireland, and softness is the trait owners single out most, with one calling a sweater the softest piece of clothing they had ever handled. The range runs across linen, alpaca-silk, and wool-cashmere yarns, and reviewers report pieces holding their shape and softness over years of wear. Production runs are small, so colorways sell out quickly, and prices sit firmly at the premium end.
- Strengths
- Owners consistently praise the yarn quality and exceptional softness, with Ireland-made construction they report holding up for years.
- Watch out for
- Long-time buyers report recent pieces coming up small versus earlier seasons, and small production runs mean fast sellouts at high prices.
