We think the sea and surf reminiscent hues of these sweaters are especially appealing. The allure of Shetland wool is its softness and fluffy hand, so that the plain weave sweater is characterized by a good deal of loft. The banded sleeves and ribbed bottom are typical, as is the 2x1 ribbed crewneck. This season, we offer a selection of colors.
