Colour Guide

Cashmere Colour Guide: 194 Shades, from Cream to Black

MITONY offers 194 colours across four yarns: 78 in 100% cashmere, 26 in an 80% cashmere / 20% wool blend, 75 in extra fine merino wool and 15 in a 90% Tencel / 10% mulberry silk blend. You choose the colour for your yarn in the Create My Sweater configurator, and every piece is knitted to order, so a black cashmere sweater, a navy cardigan or a sage green hoodie is made just as easily as a classic cream.

How to choose your colour

Screens show colour slightly differently, so the digital preview may vary a little from the finished knit. For an exact shade, check our physical colour card before you order — just ask us for it — or download the full MITONY Colour Book (PDF). The codes below match the colour book: H for 100% cashmere, L for the cashmere–wool blend, MW for merino and C for Tencel–silk.

Cashmere colours by family

The cashmere, cashmere–wool and Tencel–silk shades below are grouped by colour family. Each swatch shows the colour code and the yarn it belongs to.

Whites, creams and beiges

Light neutrals look clean with denim and tailoring alike and work in every season. If you are after a white or cream cashmere sweater, compare the shades on the physical colour card — the difference between a pure white and a warm cream is easier to see in person.

Greens
