River’s Edge Cardigan was inspired by the quiet banks of winding rivers, the simplicity and serene landscapes and flowing life of the river. Taking this and translating it into a cardigan was a balancing act. This seamless knit with collar that is worked with the body, borders a cable that twists and flows down the center of the back. The classic look of a cardigan with an elegant cable makes a timeless piece.
