Take a languid tour through the sun dappled fields of the Campbell-Hansmire ranch with the Dalleray cowl. Arcs and twists of organic cables loop upwards in columns, echoing soft stalks of alfalfa waving gently in the mountain breeze. Simple cable repeats provide a steady anchor for those new to cabling while Ranch 03’s springy Merino makes for a plump texture that comforts in both wide- and narrow-sized versions.
