Mirehouse

Mirehouse is a feminine piece full of all the details that make for a wardrobe essential. Fitted sleeves end with a double length cuff to turn over for visual interest and comfort. Designed to be a worn with 5-8 cm (2-3 in) of positive ease, this sweater is worked without waist shaping, but the thoughtful placement of the gentle textured stitches creates a flattering line to the overall look. Worked in pieces before seaming, this sweater has all the structure we need to flatter whilst still leaving it versatile enough for layering over a pretty dress or digging in the garden denims.
