Extreme reversible texture from this cowl/scarf design from our FW16 collection couldn’t leave us indifferent as we chose to be rendered in TOV. For the overtwisted nature of this yarn combined with the cabled eyelet stitch created a strongly articulate fabric that is architectural and one of a kind textured exploration.
