High Lorton

High Lorton is a transitional piece for the cooler mornings of Autumn, layering in deep Winter and still offering comfort on rainy days in Spring. Worked in the round, from the bottom up, this is a project to enjoy making as much as wearing. Cables appear before you split for the deep v-neck while things are kept fuss free thanks to simple construction. Easy shaping is provided by the textured details for a flattering fitted look that would work as well with a classic white tee as it would a crisp collared shirt. This versatile top is designed to be worn with 0-8 cm (0-3 in) positive ease.
