Keiko Kikuno

$ 8

Influenced by Japan's reknowned zen gardens, the Karesansui pullover echoes the tranquil essence. Its graceful cables, with intentionally placed bobbles recreate the winding patterns often presented in these gardens.  Its unique construction, worked sideways from cuff to cuff, creates a graceful drape to the pullover.. Knit in cotton/wool blend Wren, Karesansui evokes a sense of zen-like serenity in its entirety.

This pattern is also available as part of Artisan Collection: Keiko Kikuno.
