Orée is a loose-fitting, comfortable sweater for autumn: chic but still practical to wear outdoors. It has a high turtleneck collar, and for an elegant shape, the front of the sweater is worked shorter than the back. The interesting feature in this otherwise simple design is the ribbed lines created with twisted stitches on Reverse Stock­inette Stitch. The cobalt-blue shade creates a stunning contrast with the classic autumn tones, and the combination of two yarns is soft and fluffy.
