Route 1 is my pattern in the WEEKEND AWAY collection, a fun moment of unwinding- a collaboration with my dear friends Thea Colman and Bristol Ivy. Each sweater is named for the roads we traveled to reach each other!

If you’ve ever been to Maine (or dreamed of it), Route 1 is a famous drive that winds along the state’s edge, bordered by dramatic cliffs and sparkling blue ocean. It’s not the fastest way to ‘get there from here’, but it is a classic! It winds through small coastal fishing towns, past weathered fishing shacks covered in buoys, and rocky beaches. The further north you go the more relaxed it gets.

That quintessential summer drive inspired this pullover. Simple, rugged, and perfect for a weekend getaway! I designed it to feel like it’s always been a part of your rotation. A classic heritage texture on the sleeves pairs well with the simple, clean tailoring of the body. A timeless henley collar adds structure and comforting, campy feelings.

Pairs well with a cabin in the woods, fisherman memorabilia, lobster rolls, and a baseball cap!

To see the whole collection, head to visit Thea and Bristol’s pages as well!
