Information
The Straw Sweater, green version, is a hand knitted sweater made in DROPS Kid-Silk, DROPS Flora and one strand of DROPS Merino Extra Fine. Its deep green colour combined with the light straw motif creates a timeless, nature inspired look.
Each sweater is hand knitted to order. The yarn combination creates a soft, lightweight and warm garment with a beautiful drape and subtle colour depth. The decorative straw motif around the body provides an elegant focal point, while the rest of the sweater has a clean and classic appearance.
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.
