ENJOY A 30% INTRO DISCOUNT THRU MONDAY, OCTOBER 6, NO CODE NEEDED

FAYNA is a softly structured top-down sweater, designed to feel like a second skin – light, effortless, and quietly elegant.

Knit seamlessly from the top down in the softest merino wool, FAYNA features a delicate, undulating pattern that runs along the body and sleeves – reminiscent of unfolding leaves or fern fronds. The intricate texture is beautifully grounded by clean edges: simple knit-and-purl ribbing at the neckband, cuffs, and hem brings balance and wearability to the design. For added variety, the pattern also features a delicate lace variation.

The ease across sizes is 20-23 cm/8-9.25”. The picture shows size 2 with 22 cm/8.75” of positive ease.
