Description

This stunning drop shoulder sweater features a beautiful bouquet lace pattern knitted all over the body, stockinette stitch on the sleeves, and a split hem with a longer back piece. Inspired by blooming flower beds in designer Maria Magnusson’s garden, this sweater is full of gorgeous detail and organic shapes. It has a neat ribbed column of stitches up the sides, from the hem to the underarm, and the sleeve cuffs are shaped for a better fit.

Knitted in lovely Cumbria, this sweater is made from a lustrous blend of Masham wool, Merino and mohair. The crisp stitch definition of this yarn and its soft touch make this a luxury garment that can be worn every day.
