Puro is Finnish for ‘stream’. The body and the top of the sleeve of this gorgeous cardigan feature a textured pattern consisting of cables and bobbles inspired by pebble-bottomed streams. The Puro cardigan will keep you warm and cosy wherever your adventures take you. The design is named after a stream in Eastern Helsinki called Mustapuro which the designer Jenny Ansah crosses or walks by almost daily.
