Just like the navy version, the Rufus knit in black is the wardrobe staple I will be reaching for every other day. Perfect fit, perfect length, stunning knit. Worth every cent. Thanks Caves Collect for making getting dressed easy in the morning.

Fit: Slim, great for layering
Fabric: The loveliest, cosiest wool I've ever had the pleasure of wearing. And that it's made in Australia - extra special!
Just perfect

A delight to wear. Feels great on the skin, and a flattering cut. I particularly like the neckline and how it seems to pull my shoulders back, making it appear that I have better posture than I actually do ; ) I already had the rufus knit in navy, and wondered if it was too indulgent to buy it in black. Absolutely no regrets! I wear them both so much!

Fit: Just right - i sized up based on other comments and it was relaxed but not too big.
Fabric: Lovely! Though it does seem quite delicate (despite being thick).
Simple, stylish, classic

Loved it. The shape and fit are really flattering. I love the high crew neck, and it sits just right on the belt of high-waisted jeans.

Classic, chic, well made

This is such a high quality piece. It's the perfect cropped length and fitted cut that's going to be so flattering with high waisted trousers and skirts this winter.

Height: 165cm
Size Purchased: 10
Reviewers Usual Size (AU): 8-10
Fit: Perfect. I was worried it would only work with higher waisted pants, but it’s fine with pants that sit a little lower.
Fabric: Excellent quality. The merino wool is thicker than I was expecting (in a good way), which means it actually provides a good degree of warmth. I usually wear a long sleeved thermal top underneath my jumpers, but it’s not needed with this jumper.
Classic and comfortable

I like the attention to the cuffs and the neckline, as well as the overall look and how it sits on me. I genuinely look forward to wearing it on its two allocated work wardrobe days per week! Obviously would also be good to wear out, casually.

Fabric: Luxurious fine knit and perfect navy colour
Luxurious classic everyday

I really like the feel of the knit it is lightweight and soft to wear and I am able to wear it easily dressed up with tailored pants or skirt or dressed down with jeans. It is quite fitted and cropped, designed to wear with high waisted bottoms. I am usually a size 10 in tops but after reading the reviews I ordered a size 12 which is a perfect fitted style, I will definitely be buying another of these knits next winter in a size 14 for a relaxed fit.
