Brick-patterned sweater
High-contrast sweater in black & taupe --- comprising bricks, lines, blanket-stitched borders & art-deco appliques. Slinky, with the feel and heavy hang of a St John Santana knit, circa 1970s. Striped ribbing cinches the waist and cuffs. Shoulders are emphasized with a white cotton crochet --- a flower set against lattice-weave. Keyhole back. Gathered, puff sleeves.
