PONCHO PULLOVER
A combination that makes the best of two worlds: poncho meets pullover in this cool design. This model has a deep V-neck, narrow sleeves and pointed hemline. We love the simple look of the poncho pullover. You can style it with almost anything – and wear it indoors and out. Knitted in a super-soft blend of cotton, merino and alpaca. 02 36-44 • •• • •
