100% Merino Wool Turtleneck Sweater
.OCELOT. – merino wool turtleneck sweaters for her and him
Last year, our men’s black turtleneck sweater, .OCELOT., joined the stable. Ever since, you’ve been asking for a women’s version and more colours. And here they are! Turtleneck sweaters for her and him, made from 100% RWS merino wool.
New to the stable: a women’s turtleneck sweater
We believe a merino wool sweater is a timeless wardrobe staple that works for all kinds of occasions. When you told us our stable was missing a women’s turtleneck, we couldn’t ignore you. We love wearing them ourselves, so we got straight to work. The result is a versatile women’s sweater we hope you’ll love as much as we do.
For her and him: how our turtleneck fits differ
The two fits differ in much the same way as our .KAMELEON. merino wool T-shirts. The men’s .OCELOT. has a relaxed cut, set-in sleeves and a tall neck that folds over. Its timeless shape suits a range of body types, and from what you’ve told us, it’s a favourite for both everyday wear and special occasions.
And the women’s turtleneck? It features long raglan sleeves and a smooth hem with practical side slits instead of a ribbed finish. The neck is already folded over, so it sits lower than on the men’s version. It’s thoughtfully constructed with a little stretch, making it easy to pull on without worrying about transferring makeup or snagging the fabric.
Our wool turtleneck size guide: which sizes are available?
Men’s .KOPYTO. sweaters come in two carefully considered sizes: M/L and L/XL. Full measurements are available for both models, .JENOT. and .OCELOT., so check them if you’re unsure which size to choose.
The women’s .OCELOT. comes in one size, just like our .KAMELEON. T-shirt. It fits standard sizes S–L, with side slits at the hem that allow it to sit comfortably on different body shapes and hip widths. You can also fold the hem under or tuck it into the waistband of your trousers or skirt.
The sleeves are designed to suit different proportions, too. Depending on your height, arm length and, of course, your preferences, you can wear them at full length or adjust the turn-back cuffs. There’s a lovely little surprise hidden inside them…

Classic worsted-spun yarn made from 100% RWS merino wool – that’s what we use for our .OCELOT. sweaters.
We’re proud to announce that, from this season, all our new sweaters also carry RWS certification. RWS stands for Responsible Wool Standard, a standard for responsibly sourced wool.
Although we used exactly the same certified yarn last season, we couldn’t describe the finished sweaters as certified because our sewing workshop wasn’t yet certified. We’ve now made sure the workshop has been audited too.
Worsted-spun 100% merino yarn is what defines our .KLASYKI. family. It’s lightweight and smooth, with a slightly silky feel and the shortest surface nap of all the yarn types in our stable.
Dressed up or ready for adventure: a versatile wardrobe staple
Our .OCELOT. sweaters are wonderfully practical creatures. They’ll join you for a bike ride, a hike or outdoor yoga, but also for a Sunday stroll with your grandma, a cinema trip, school, work or university. They’re lightweight, soft and non-itchy, resist odours and always look great. Pack a wool sweater for your next trip and enjoy just how versatile it is.
Easier than you think: how to care for merino wool clothing
Despite what you may have heard, caring for wool isn’t complicated. So, how should you look after your wool turtleneck?
We recommend washing .OCELOT. by hand, just like our hats, scarves and neck warmers. Keep the water temperature at or below 30°C and handle the knit as gently as possible. Use a gentle detergent and lay flat to dry.
