Spanish term or phrase: punto lavado

Hello. This is from a lifestyle magazine article (Spain) on knitwear, which apparently is very fashionable this autumn-winter season:

"Este año se puede decir que el inverno se teje en punto. Todas las colecciones, marcas de ropa o firmas de prestigio lo incluyen en sus propuestas como el gran imprescindible de la temporada. Ya sea de Jacquard, de croché, lanas, mohair o **punto lavado** más fino, este tejido está más de moda que nunca."

Going into UK English.

Thanks for your help
Simon

washed wool

2 hrs confidence:

washed wool

Explanation:
I think it is more likely to be washed wool than washed knitwear because it comes in a list along with other types of materials, all made of different sorts of wool or different methods of fabrication.

Example sentence(s):

Guaranteed to give even simple looks extra appeal and interest, this pure washed wool shrug knit open cardigan is set to make a true style statement.
