Weatherstaff Cardigan
Weatherstaff is a top-down seamless cardigan with mesh panels punctuating the ribbed fabric. Two subtly space-dyed yarns combine to creative fabric that almost seems to shimmer - Weatherstaff is sure to become a gem in your wardrobe!
The Cabrito Collection is an exploration of how a strand of our laceweight kid mohair yarn, Cabrito, paired with another yarn adds a layer of rich texture and velvety warmth.
