The Sook Moon Sweater is a soft and chic friend for life. With its changing stripe pattern that allows discreet glimpses of skin, Sook Moon is a playful sweater that challenges the eye. In a mix of silk, wool and mohair, the sweater feels light and yet has a beautiful draped effect, which makes it appear entirely classic at the same time. Wear it with relaxed linen trousers for contrast, or pair it with a beautiful evening dress to complete your outfit. Sook Moon is knitted top down with raglan details, there is shaping at the bottom to give it a beautiful fit, and there are no difficult techniques.
