Description
This ruby red, Scottish cashmere crewneck sweater has the classic "sweater girl" fitted shape of the 1950s. The full-length sleeves have ribbed, turn-back cuffs and the waist is also ribbed. The sweater is in excellent condition. Wonderfully soft (and much more pill-resistant than today's cashmere), 1950's sweaters of this type are a joy to wear, and will outlast their modern counterparts with proper care. It will look lovely worn with everything from jeans to a pencil skirt.
