The Mohair Silk Cardigan with balloon sleeves in a delicate beige shade transitions effortlessly from formal occasions to refined everyday wear.
Handmade in our Salzburg atelier from RMS-certified mohair and Mulberry silk spun in Italy, the cardigan possesses the natural lustre and signature softness of a premium mohair-silk blend. It is exceptionally gentle against the skin, featuring a subtle sheen that responds beautifully to the light.
It features balloon sleeves expertly gathered at the cuff with a longer, denser finish to create a soft, considered volume.
Each cardigan is hand-knitted with attention to proportion, texture, and finish. Produced in limited quantities, it reflects a commitment to slow craftsmanship and considered design.

How do I care for my knitwear?
As we work exclusively with natural fibres, the general rule is to handwash when needed, air your knitwear between wears rather than wash it too often, and always store it folded flat.
Use a lanolin-free detergent for mohair and a lanolin-enriched detergent for wool and cashmere. If you prefer one detergent, choose a gentle formula suitable for all the fibres in your knitwear.

What makes Onika Knitwear’s fibres special?
Onika Knitwear works exclusively with natural fibres, including premium Mongolian cashmere and carefully selected mohair-silk blends, chosen for their softness, durability and distinctive texture.
The yarns are selected with a focus on fibre quality and recognised certifications, including ICEA-certified cashmere, RMS-certified mohair, GOTS and OEKO-TEX® Standard 100, where applicable. These certifications provide additional assurance about specific aspects of the materials and their sourcing.
Combined with small-batch production and timeless designs, these materials create knitwear designed to be worn and enjoyed for years to come.
We work with carefully selected natural fibres, sourced with respect for animal welfare, biodiversity, and land. From Italian-spun yarns to cashmere sourced directly from Mongolian herding communities, each material reflects a commitment to quality and responsibility.
