Favo Sweater
The Favo sweater is a cozy oversized hug of a sweater with a high cropped fit and a dropped hem. It has an all over textured pattern with a fun stitch and cable panel in the front. It is perfect to be worn over dresses or with high waisted pants/skirts.
Favo means honeycomb in Italian and is inspired by the cozy texture on the sleeves and body resembling a honeycomb structure.
