This is JUST IN, stunningly beautiful, both colorwise and quality-wise! This Italian sweater knit is quite chunky, thick and luxurious, and the amazing color is a smokey lavender (the smokey part comes from the silvery mohair strands and the lavender is 18-3737). A great addition to an upscale casual wardrobe, perfect for a cozy indoor (or outdoor) cardigan or sweater jacket. This should be much more expensive than it is--I am not detecting any synthetic at all in my burn test, although there may be a bit of nylon. BEAUTIFUL quality. It's soft, warm and thick, with great texture. Dry clean, or test first before washing at home.
