Mairea Sweater by Novita Design Studio

Mairea is the sweater you’ll reach for when you want to feel both confident and comfortable, every single day. Its design blends practical beauty with understated luxury—perfect for elevating everyday moments. With its architectural lines and clean silhouette, this knit pullover is a timeless classic you’ll want to wear all year round. Thoughtfully crafted details like the elegantly shaped saddle shoulders and cropped waist-length fit add to its refined character. The Aino yarn, a soft blend of alpaca and merino wool, is a joy to knit with—and even more delightful to wear.
