Strawberry Cardigans
OMG! This sweater is a must. The colors are beautiful and vibrant. The knit pattern is fun and the weight is perfect for fall/winter. I love this sweater and would order any similar one Amano creates.
This sweater is a statement piece and paid well with jeans for a casual weekend look or a skirt for a more formal look. Do yourself a favor and invest in a classic that is well made and beautiful
I forgot to mention in my previous review, the pockets.
It has brilliantly sized pockets! Only other women will understand how important a good pocket is!
I fell in love with this cardigan when I saw a lady wearing it while out one evening. When I got home I did a Google search for Strawberry cardigan and was excited when I found it on Amano's website. I very rarely treat myself, so while it is more than I would usually spend, I decided to buy it as a gift to myself and I'm so happy that I did. After ordering on Monday my cardigan arrived Tuesday of the following week. It was beautifully wrapped and had a little bio of the lady who had knitted it. It's lovely and thick but the wool is not itchy, which I was worried about. It is definitely my favourite item of clothing.
A piece that will last a lifetime and so fun! I’m a M-L in most things and the M fits really nicely.
The cardigan is beautiful. Loose fitting so size S was fine for me and fortunately I like the looser look. Liked the inclusion of info about the person that knotted it.
However - delivery took ages and the parcel seemed to be stuck with Fedex at Stanstead, so arrived a week after the expected delivery time. Did not know it was arriving from source and not UK.
