Lot 527 ARC Turtleneck Sweater Wool Cashmere Charcoal

A relaxed fitting, boxy, high neck turtleneck based on a pattern distributed by the American Red Cross during the 1940's. The fine lambswool yarn achieves a subtle melange colouration and remarkable softness by blending with rare white cashmere. Double knitting techniques throughout the body produce a dense hand while "garter stitch" detailing at the shoulders and side seams pay homage to the original pattern. Constructed using full fashion panels and linked seams for a long lasting shape that minimizes waste in production.
