This simple Possumsilk Shaped Jacket is made from the luxurious and ultra-warm fiber, Merino Possum Silk.  Possum Silk is a blend of 50% super-fine New Zealand Merino Wool, 40% Possum Fur, and 10% Silk.  A totally natural fibre, bringing together the qualities of the three individual fibers to create ultra-soft, warmer than wool, lightweight garments.

This style is ideal for those who like their knitwear plain and simple, either to wear with a dressy skirt or pants, or to wear as an informal weekend jacket. 

Merino PossumSilk is also ideal for anyone who feels the cold but doesn't want to carry the weight of a heavy sweater or coat.  I have arthritis and have found the Merino Possum Silk ideal for my condition, keeping me toasty warm in the coldest of conditions.

Note the shaping in the jacket, designed to make the jacket fit any figure beautifully.  This is a much nicer alternative to the shapeless knitted cardigan or jacket, which makes us all look a little bigger!

The Plain Shaped Possumsilk Jacket is available in colors Cerise and Cobalt, and in sizes XS to XXL.  Here is how the sizes compare:

XS = NZ/UK 10 = US 8
S = NZ/UK 12 = US 10
M = NZ/UK 14 = US 12

XXL = NZ/UK 20 = US 18

By purchasing this garment you are also helping us rid our pristine native bush of the introduced Australian pest, the brush-tailed possum.  This animal is quite different to the US opossum.  The possum preys on our endangered native Kiwi, and destroys our native trees at an alarming rate.  We must get rid of this pest before it wipes out our native species.
