The Selkie Jumper is a short-sleeved raglan jumper with a pretty lace rib on the collar, cuffs and hem. It’s worked seamlessly in one piece from the top down. Selkie is knitted in Sägen Fe, a luxurious hand dyed yarn with alpaca, silk and cashmere. The fibre blend offers a nice drape and softness, making it perfect for a soft and comfortable top.
