The long-sleeved Lumous (Finnish for magic, fascination) cable-knit dress is knitted in delicately shimmering Novita Woolly Wood yarn. The wonderfully soft and beautifully draping yarn consists of 70% modal fiber and 30% merino wool. Designed by Sigrid Blom, the dress features a flattering shoulder construction. The dress is not only beautiful, it is also interesting to knit.
