Kaen – Japanese for flower garden – is a top down seamless pullover adorned with blooming cables and a set-in sleeve look. The large cable is framed by a small cable and a reversible stockinette stitch stripe around the round neck that ends in a twisted rib, just like the body. Kaen is knitted in the gorgeous Garna Nobilis – a fine lambswool yarn - held together with Cumulus – an extrafine cashmere and silk mixture.
