Morel Sweater
The Morel Sweater is a seamless, boxy sweater with dropped shoulders and all over texture.
Morel is the name of a cherry variety in Danish and the sweater was inspired by the long chilly scandinavian summer evenings, eating cherries and wearing long flowy summer dresses and light sweaters.
