FALL/WINTER 2020 ALPACA HEATHER COLLECTION

Four sweaters (and a vest option!) show off the qualities of : softness; warmth without bulk; round, 3-ply twist to flatter textured stitches as well as stockinette; beautifully heathered undyed colors; and a coordinated palette of saturated dyed colors that retain the subtlety of the underlying heathered tones.

Dejah's jewel-like colorwork draws the eye first, but this boxy pullover also features fine detailing. Turned hems give a crisp finish at the bottom edge and sleeve cuffs, as well as providing body to the stand-up collar.
