Going Green

It’s easy being green when you slip into a verdant linen and silk tweed cropped pullover.
SHAWL-COLLAR CROP TOP
Rowan’s nubby silk and linen Summer Tweed was the jumping-off point for this design. It’s a beautiful fiber that requires a simple, yet interesting shape to show off its intense color and texture. This a look that will take you through the seasons.
