DESCRIPTION

Winter in cottage country can be long, dark and cold when waiting for summer to return. With piles of snow and treachorous roads you can find yourself stuck both physically and mentally. The days are grey and uninspiring and the typical woolies keeping you warm can be much the same. Based on traditional fair isle sweaters, this sweater includes modern features such as waist shaping, fitted sleeves, loose cowl neck, and vivid color choices. Warm and cozy, this sweater will not only keep you toasty when you venture outside, but the pops of bright color are guaranteed break you out of your winter doldrums.
