Star Pullover in Denim
One of the stars right in the middle of the chest is a cross instead of a star, but that's ok! Makes it even more special. Besides that it's perfect, and very soft
Absolutely adore this jumper, have worn it nonstop. As someone with sensitive skin I was apprehensive about buying (even my wool coat’s collar touching my neck can make me itchy!) ive had no problems with this soft material. Ive been holding out on buying this for years, so I’m so happy I’ve finally done it! Thank you amano and thank you Rosa for knitting such a lovely piece ☺️
As a guy I can confidently say that this is unisex. Anyone can wear it. The material is so soft and well crafted! Thank you, Lucia Montenegro for knitting this beautiful piece! It is phenomenal and I plan to purchase more in the future.
Not going to lie, I was hesitant buying from a company that I had never seen their product in person and spending a chunk of money but I was really hoping that the price tag equal quality. It does! This sweater is so incredibly soft and not itchy at all! Very well made, beautiful rich colors, and did I mention it soft?
I received this sweater literally today on Christmas day. And what a gift to myself. Owning something so specially handmade and wonderfully handmade makes you feel like you've been gifted an item made by a friend or family member. It is a beautiful reminder to slow down and enjoy things that you can't buy in a huge store. Its truly a special item to cherish forever. I hope all the people involved in this beautiful project have an amazing and more importantly safe holiday season. Thank you so kindly. I ordered xxxl and I am 230lbs, it fits just oversized enough (as I dont like fitted sweaters). I am also a little short in my arms and torso but this sweater is perfect length for me that the sleeves don't cover my hand and the sweater is not cropped. Its a perfect fit all around for me. Its also super soft for wool and I'm a person who doesn't like itchy textures on my skin it drives my adhd wild. Its just such perfection couldn't have asked for more.
