The sinuous tracery of Perpetua is inspired by the growth of plant life around old buildings, such as cathedrals and Ivy League colleges, and the peaceful irony of such places—where the natural and the man-made grow old side by side. The rustic but refined hand of Corriedale Aran reinforces this atmosphere, providing definition to twisted stitches and bobbles; the double-length cowl benefits from the yarn’s squishy drape.
