    About Mut

    Mut is a cardigan like a hug, meant to give you joy and comfort. Its mix of brioche and stockinette keeps it interesting while the shape makes it incredibly versatile to wear! In the words of Renate, the designer: "It displays comfort through careful selection of huggable yarn, squeezable brioche fabric, and artful stitching."
