From the 1960s

Someone pinch me! This is such an extra special 1960s handknit sweater that's sure to be the envy on the slopes & you definitely won't be the one chattering your teeth! Plus, chances are, you will be the only person with a sweater like this!

One of a kind thick & extra furry luxurious vintage mohair pullover with slightly muted orangey-yellow & watermelon in a geo-abstract 2 toned colorblock. This fibrous beast is a definite stand-out with intensely delicious color texture & absolute heaven for the fibermaniacs out there. SO SNUFFLEUPAGUS!

There's an incredible elongated puffy cowl neck that you can play around with quite a bit & super chunky folded cuffs showing the exaggerated knitting details. The cuffs can be unfolded for some extra long sleeve drama. The fit is long, relaxed, & oversized for most. There's ribbing on the bottom band so you can wear it full length or tucked under.
