Me1issa Masse Italian plaid yarn dyed sweater knit
contents: poly/visc/wool/lyc
width: 51"
origin: Me1issa Masse/Italy
This is the coolest yarn-dyed sweater knit from Me1issa Masse, made in Italy... so unusual and very smart, stylish and super versatile. The fabric has a sweatery texture, tightly knit and opaque with a drape like a very thick matte jersey with a bit of body. It has some wool content but does not feel wooly at all. The knitted-in plaid design has a 9.25" repeat and features purple, turquoise and black (PANTONE 19-3842, 16-4725). The reverse is a micro-tweed mix of all the colors and serves as wonderful contrast. It has about 15% stretch in the width, a bit less in the length. The weight and drape could work for just about anything: cardigan, tunic, pullover, wrap dress, soft jacket, skirt, knit dress or suit, elastic waist pants, legging... have I left anything out? Dry clean or treat as you would any fine sweater knit (please test first if you choose to hand wash).
