The story behind the design
Brown Eyes was developed with flexibility in mind – one pattern, two yarn qualities, two completely different looks. The half brioche gives the sweater texture and depth, while the pronounced puff sleeves add a feminine feel that works just as well in airy mohair as in warm Kos wool.
