Eva
Eva is the cardigan I find myself reaching for again and again — when the air turns crisp, when leaves start to fall, or when I just want to feel wrapped in comfort.
With its flowing lines, deep ribbed hem, and relaxed shaping, it drapes gently over the shoulders like a soft layer of warmth, keeping me warm and happy.
