Gocce

Introducing the exquisite Gocce Cardigan, a beautifully fitted lace cardigan inspired by Shibui Knits’ Rain yarn, a stunning chainette cotton option perfect for summer wear. The poetic imagery of “Fleeting drops fall…” encapsulates the delicate lace pattern that adorns this elegant jacket. “Gocce,” the Italian word for drops, was thoughtfully chosen to bestow an air of sophistication upon this v-neck cardigan, making it a must-have staple for your warm-weather wardrobe. Each piece of the cardigan is knitted separately to ensure the ultimate fit, which is meticulously seamed for a polished finish. A versatile cowl adorns the cardigan, designed to be worn loose for an airy look or wrapped twice around your neck for added warmth and style.

Yarn: Shibui Knits, Rain (in the refreshing hue of Mineral).
