The Salvia pullover is knitted seamlessly top-down starting at the neckband. The sleeves and body are separated at the end of the circular yoke and knitted separately. The eye-catching volume sleeves have an interesting bobble pattern that makes them stand out from the otherwise subtly textured pullover.

Salvia is the Finnish word for sage.
