What women's jumpers does Shirley Allum Boutique stock?

We stock women's jumpers in cashmere, wool, alpaca and cotton. Estheme and Notshy supply most of the cashmere, and Mat de Misaine, Marble and Mansted make up much of the rest, in roll necks, crew necks and sleeveless knits.

How do I choose a women's roll neck jumper?

Start with the yarn. Cashmere is light and very warm for its weight, wool is hardier, and cotton is the one for milder days. A roll neck covers more of you, so a finer knit is easier to wear under a coat. We are happy to help you compare in the Shaftesbury shop.

Where can I buy ladies jumpers in Dorset?

You can buy ladies jumpers from us at Shirley Allum Boutique on Shaftesbury High Street, Dorset, in store and online. We carry Estheme, Notshy, Mat de Misaine, Marble and more, and you can filter by size online.

What sizes do the jumpers come in?

Jumper sizing varies by brand, and knitwear often has a little give. If you prefer a closer or roomier fit, sizing up or down works, and we are happy to help you choose in the Shaftesbury boutique.

How should I care for knitwear?

Knitwear lasts best washed cool on a wool or hand-wash cycle and dried flat to keep its shape, never hung wet. Cashmere and alpaca especially prefer gentle washing and flat drying.

Women's Jumpers

Cashmere makes up much of our women's jumpers this season, and most of it comes from Estheme. The Paris label has designed cashmere since 2003 and is not shy with colour or pattern.

Notshy is the other cashmere we buy. Simpler shapes, very soft. Mat de Misaine knits with a French coastal feel, from a hooded Breton to an alpaca roll neck. Marble designs its textured knits in Glasgow, along with the odd knitted cape, and Gollehaug and Mansted knit warm wool in stronger colour.

Women's roll neck jumpers are the shape we buy most. There are crew necks and high necks too, and a few short-sleeved knits that sit neatly under a jacket.

We choose our ladies jumpers by how they feel on, so they are worth trying in Shaftesbury if you can get to us. Online, our women's cardigans sit right alongside them.
