Named for a village on the west coast of Ireland where I once spent a chilly, damp afternoon, the Roundstone Coat is the perfect thing to cuddle up in when temperatures drop. Its empire waist cable detail and mid-thigh length are universally flattering. Purl lines on the lower body and sleeves create visual interest in the otherwise stockinette fabric. A hood adds warmth and casual style.

The coat is constructed from the bottom up in pieces (with set-in sleeves) and then seamed for stability.
