Blithe
Blithe was inspired by the whistling winds, falling leaves and carefree warm afternoons of fall. The style of cardigan was inspired by a jacket I saw in an episode of Wuthering Heights with the wind blowing sharply across the Moor and small children playing out in the open air. This design is meant to evoke red and orange leaves strewn across the remaining green grass.
