SIMKHAI Carrick Fringed CottonBlend Knit Sweater

Product Insights & Style Tips

The SIMKHAI Carrick Fringed Cotton-Blend Knit Sweater brings a fresh sense of energy to the classic striped pullover. Rendered in a plush cotton-blend knit, its hand has the kind of luxurious softness that feels undeniably lived-in but distinctly elevated—true to Jonathan Simkhai's approach to balancing refinement and ease. Striking horizontal stripes in tonal colorways run across the body, punctuated by generous, tactile fringe that moves with you. The interplay of texture and pattern is graphic but never harsh, underscoring the brand’s knack for juxtaposing strength with a softness that reads both confident and wearable.

With its relaxed silhouette and ribbed crew neck, this sweater lands somewhere between cozy comfort and intentional polish. The loose fit quietly accommodates layers underneath, while ribbed trims at the collar, cuffs, and hem offer a gentle structure that keeps everything in place without sacrificing that slouchy, thrown-on appeal. Fringed detailing wakes up the everyday striped knit, flowing effortlessly from day to night—draped over trousers for office hours, then shrugged over slip skirts or denim for whatever comes after. The dimensional surface makes it an easy statement on its own, but it plays well with tailored basics, allowing the texture to stay in focus.

SIMKHAI’s signature is this kind of off-kilter flourish—unexpected fringe grounding an otherwise classic shape, referencing both Americana knitwear and the sense of movement seen on today’s runways. It’s the sort of piece that feels as right in a downtown gallery as it does on weekend brunches, channeling that in-the-know sensibility woven through every SIMKHAI collection.
