This is a terrific wool blend open mesh woven from Italy at a fantastic price! It is light and airy, sheer, no stretch, with the fuzzy mohair obscuring the open weave just a bit. Very silky soft, drapey, and the color is a dark navy (PANTONE 19-3928). Great for overlays, shawl, scarf, see-through top to wear with something underneath. Dry clean, or if you wish to try hand-washing at home please test first, and lay flat to dry.
