About Awen

Inspired by the woods and wilds of the Hudson Valley, Awen by Meghan Babin is an homage to her home. A story in stitches, this unisex pullover captures the essence of wooded trails, forest shelters and towers, and the many waterways of the Hudson River Valley. Designed to evoke the nostalgia of camp, fall hikes, and autumnal coziness, this heritage knit is an instant classic to cherish forever.

This raglan is made from the bottom up in pieces and seamed for stability and forever wear. Heavily cabled designs need the stability of seams to prevent the heavy fabric from stretching out over time. The neckband is picked up and worked in the round after seaming, then folded over and seamed for a cozy finish to this handsome sweater for everyone.

Designed for Hudson + West Co's Forge.
