Turn around and the pattern is still there. That sounds obvious and it is not - plenty of patterned knitwear puts its detail on the front and lets the back go plain, which works until someone is standing behind you.
The yoke here runs a full circle, stacked bands of geometric pattern reaching from the ribbed crew neckline out to the top of the sleeve, front and back alike. Below it the body is left plain in cashmere, and a narrower version of the same pattern reappears at each cuff so the sleeves resolve rather than just stopping.
It is the piece that makes the rest of an outfit an afterthought, which on most mornings is the point.
Details You'll Love
- Full-circle patterned yoke - runs unbroken front and back rather than stopping at the shoulder.
- Ribbed crew neckline - sits close so the yoke lies flat across the shoulders.
- Patterned cuffs - a narrower version of the yoke motif, so the sleeves resolve.
- Plain cashmere body - left unpatterned so the yoke does not have to compete.
- Stacked geometric bands - sized to read from across a room rather than up close.
