So they say
I just received the crewneck, and I have to say, this has to be the finest sweater I've ever seen, let alone worn. It's a work of art, and the photos really don't do it justice. The stitching is so satisfyingly chunky and the wool incomparably soft, even directly against the skin. I laughed at your note about washing, I can't imagine ever subjecting this to a washing machine! It is just in time for th dip in temperature today.
Excuse my language, but it's flipping incredible.
The heavy crewneck has completely surpassed my expectations. The workmanship is superb. The wool is incredibly soft and the colour / texture definitely holds one's interest. Fit is perfect, and even allows for playing around with the sleeve-length given that it does stretch.
I just picked up the two items from post office. Fantastic. The donkey jacket is so handsome. I've never had a light colour jacket before, but it is so easy to wear with anything.
