L ~ Rising Venus
This L relaxed fit crewneck sweater has been dyed in multiple baths, first madder root, then tannin, then iron, to create muddled maroon and grey shades. The patchwork sewn on the back consists of Venus rising over a red hill, in the dark blue outer space atmosphere. The patch on the front is a screen printed with handmade iron ink and to me represents a spirit. It is 100% cotton.
22“ wide under arms x 26“ long from center of collar to hem .
A NOTE ON FIT ~ The large patchwork panel does not stretch as much as the rest of the sweater, so it’s ideal to wear it more as a loose fitted style. If you are considering two different sizes, go for the bigger size.
