Twisted Vines is a long-sleeved, slightly boxy V-neck pullover with a twisted stitch cable pattern that runs along the saddle shoulders and down the sleeves. The cable pattern was inspired by foliage in all its beautiful shapes and forms - vines, leaves, trees, flowers - and stages of being alive and in decay. It’s a super wearable sweater that’ll go with everything!
