"One of my favorites, always get compliment"
High quality workmanship, unique design and medium weight - not too thin and not too thick. Striking color scheme, even more attractive in person. Will never find this design in a department store. One of a kind.
Best Uses
- Weekend wear in winter

"Beautiful and comfortable."
Beautiful design and colors. Very comfortable. Must be careful not to snag the reverse of the design and pull the threads. Use a crochet needle to pull threads back through.

"Beautiful"
I never wear these colors but thought Id branch out. The sweater is lovely. I rarely buy clothes, but over the past decade, Ive bought 5 sweaters by Fernando Cano, each new one more beautiful than the last.
