A cardigan knitted in an atypical way, which gives the cable pattern the impression that they are lying diagonal.

The model is close-fitting around the belly, and with wide bat sleeves, , wich has named the cardigan, Vespertilio which means Bat in Latin.

In addition, it has wide ribbed hem at the bottom and on the sleeves in a contrasting yarn, which emphasizes the soft shapes.

The cardigan is perfect as a transitional jacket, or for the long cool summer evenings on the terrace, in winter it is great for use over a dress for both parties and on the office.

The cardigan’s fit is not suitable for larger sizes than L / XL, therefore it is not graduated larger.
