Sol sweater (hand knitted)

The Sol Sweater is a hand knitted sweater made using DROPS Kid-Silk together with DROPS Flora or DROPS Alpaca, and one strand of DROPS Merino Extra Fine. The decorative colourwork pattern gives it an elegant and timeless appearance.

Each sweater is hand knitted to order. The yarn combination creates a soft, lightweight and warm sweater that is equally suited for everyday wear and more special occasions. It is a timeless garment that can be enjoyed throughout much of the year and personalised with your favourite colour combinations.

The sweater can be ordered in a wide range of colours in addition to those shown in the shop. Please get in touch if you would like different colours or have any questions about delivery times.
