The straight, relaxed silhouette and the three-quarter sleeves of the KOFU pullover make it a perfect garment for the warm seasons. The pattern includes two versions, one with ITO Serishin and one with ITO Kinu. Both yarns are 100% silk, but look and touch are completely different: ITO Serishin is dyed by a special process and is lustrous and flat, giving the pullover a flowing silhouette perfect for elegant occasions. ITO Kinu is a noil silk with a tweed character and dry feel. It is more casual and suitable for daily wear. Stripes are timeless, but a monochromatic or color-blocked version would look great as well.
