Amber Meadow Cardigan was inspired by the peaceful rhythm of the tall grass swaying in the breeze is captured in the delicate all-over lace design, a pattern that seems to flow and dance with every movement. The cool whisper of the wind is reflected in the sleeves, worked in a stockinette—a quiet contrast that grounds the piece. Wearing this cardigan is like wrapping yourself in that golden afternoon, a reminder of a beautiful, blissful moment.
