Oheka’s quiet grace is as timeless as its namesake. Echoing the clipped ring of footsteps through a grand castle, a smattering of perfectly placed purl bumps reminiscent of hewn stone highlight the humble elegance created by DK weight Arbor’s cohesive fabric. This cropped, swingy pullover has all the charm of a fairytale while maintaining the professional polish of a modern-day staple.
