The Ruthie Sweater

✨ THE RUTHIE | AURORA BOREALIS ✨ Some sweaters are just sweaters. And then there are sweaters that make you want to cancel your plans, make a cup of tea, and spend the entire day being exceptionally cozy. Meet The Ruthie, in Aurora Borealis. 🌌 Handknit with two incredibly special yarns, this sweater is a little bit of fibre magic. The yoke features a gorgeous handpainted, fluffy wool with an eyelet lace pattern that lets all those dreamy colours shine. Think shifting northern lights, with ribbons of teal, dusty rose, rust, golden ochre, lavender, and soft cream. The body and sleeves are knit in an organic Pima cotton tube filled with ultrafine merino wool fluff. The result? A sweater that is unbelievably soft, wonderfully fluffy, and exceptionally warm without the weight of a traditional chunky wool sweater. Basically, all the cozy, none of the cumbersome. And those honey-gold cuffs and hem against the deep charcoal body? Chef’s kiss.
