€84,70 EUR

We are delighted to present the “Evening on the Loire” Cardigan, designed by Joanna Filip for Laine Magazine Issue 27, and knitted with Biches & Bûches Le Petit Lambswool 🐚

'This oversized cardigan is inspired by classic school cardigans, reimagined with a contemporary touch. Its color palette and name echo Evening on the Loire by Félix Vallotton, the French-Swiss painter renowned for his bold, intense planes of color. The painting captures the magic of an evening along the Loire, playing with a subtle harmony of deep and daring tones. Designed for layering, this cardigan is both cosy and enveloping. Knitted with two strands of wool held together, it becomes a cold-season essential — a project that is as comforting to wear as it is enjoyable to knit.'

— Joanna Filip
