Polo Ralph Lauren Aran Knit Wool Alpaca Blend Mock Turtleneck Sweater in Cream

It begins just after the frost hits. You’re somewhere in the Hudson Valley, a basket of crisp apples in one arm, the sharp scent of pine in the air, and the kind of silence that only happens when snow is about to fall. You reach for this sweater. Not because it’s warm (it is), and not because it’s flattering (it’s irresistibly so), but because it feels like someone else already knew what you’d need. Spun from fine Italian yarns—40% nylon for strength, 30% wool for memory, and 30% alpaca for that improbable cloud-soft loft—this is not your standard turtleneck. This is the sweater version of a fireside monologue. The Aran cables climb like ivy up its relaxed silhouette, each one carrying a little heritage: a sailor’s knot, a wish for safety, a symbol of home. The raised textures play against the cream tone like late-day sun over fresh linen. The raglan sleeves drop with intention. The hem rests just at the hip. And the ribbed mock neck? Just high enough to suggest poetry, not pretense. Slip it on and suddenly you’re no longer just in your living room—you’re in a Highlands stone cottage with a roaring fire and a dog that understands your moods. This isn’t fashion. This is luxury, knit from nostalgia. And yes, it goes with everything.
