Business Time

BUSINESS TIME features classic lines in a wearable shape. Choose to style the slit on top and open it up for a collared look or place the slit down and over one shoulder or in the back to be able to pull the cowl up over your ears. Thoughtful details make this piece reversible inside and out as well, making it the perfect gift piece. This design is well-suited to tonal or lightly variegated yarns. For a piece with similar structure, choose a wool yarn.
