A cashmere turtleneck is the warmest piece in the knitwear wardrobe — the collar alone changes how a coat feels in January. Quinn knits turtlenecks and mock necks in Grade-A cashmere for women and men. Quinn has knit cashmere on the edge of Inner Mongolia's Alashan Plateau since 2003 — factory-direct, with no department-store markup.
Frequently asked questions
Is a cashmere turtleneck itchy? Real Grade-A cashmere isn't — itch comes from coarse fibers, and Grade-A fibers are finer than 15.5 microns, well below the itch threshold for most skin. If a 'cashmere' turtleneck itches, question the fiber, not your skin.
Turtleneck or mock neck — which is warmer? The full turtleneck is warmer thanks to the doubled collar; a mock neck gives a cleaner line under jackets and suits.
When is a cashmere turtleneck in season? Roughly October through March in most of the US — it's the coldest-weather piece in the cashmere wardrobe.
