about coquille cardi

A modern take on the classic sweater set, the COQUILLE Tank and Cardi were designed with warm summer breezes in mind.

With a notched front hem, lightly rolled front edges, COQUILLE Cardi is worked with alternating bands of Twig and Tweed Silk Cloud. The slightly different density of the two fabrics creates a slight ruching effect. The body is worked flat from the bottom up. The elbow length sleeves are worked flat and set in.
