Andrea Mowry

This sweater is  inspired by some of my favorite things - Wool & Honey Yarn shop in Northern Michigan, Brooklyn Tweed Loft, honeycombs, and my current favorite color, rusty orange! Knit top down, with a flattering, cropped, boxy silhouette, it looks equally beautiful paired with your favorite jeans or thrown on over a dress!
