Wheatheart is a modern throw-over style shirt that brings together relaxed comfort and a beautiful, timeless texture. Knitted with Fruity Knitting Sport by Artisan Fibers, a special blend of Corriedale wool and silk, it creates a fabric with a lovely drape, a soft sheen, and just the right amount of warmth.

The highlight of Wheatheart is its delicate wheat texture pattern, inspired by the simple beauty of natural forms. The pattern adds depth and interest without feeling too busy, making this a piece you’ll reach for again and again. With its easy, relaxed shape and charming button details at the sides, Wheatheart offers a fresh take on everyday knitwear.

Whether worn over a dress, paired with jeans, or layered on a cool day, Wheatheart is designed to become a favorite companion in your handmade wardrobe. A little piece of comfort, texture, and effortless style.
