This is a fantastic all-wool chunky ribbed sweater knit from J. Mendell, made in Italy. It has a very thick texture so it's suitable for a sweater coat. It has a thick 1x1 rib and the color is a pretty ivory (PANTONE 11-0105 is close). Very cozy and warm, with sweatery stretch in the width only, stable in the length. Soft and malleable, make a cozy, chunky cardigan, sweater jacket, coat, poncho, wrap, blanket, etc. Dry clean, or if you wish to try hand-washing at home please test first, and lay flat to dry.
