Cawdor

Cawdor is inspired by autumn when the last of the bilberries and the first of the mushrooms signal the end of summer. As the the trees turn, thoughts wander to cosy evenings by the fire or frosty walks kicking piles of leaves. This jumper, comfortable but also flattering, is just as at ease doing whatever you do to beat those winter blues.
