Hanna’s generous turtleneck pullover presents undulating cables which cascade over the body. The shoulders and slightly-fitted sleeves are delicately cupped with German short rows. Worked from the top down in our lofty wool/alpaca blend, Owl, we think Tessa is the perfect go-to piece on chilly days where a warm sweater hug is in order.
