10th Mountain
Cardigan
10th Mountain was designed for a retreat I led in the Rocky Mountains in 2022. We stayed in one of the legendary 10th Mountain Division Huts, hiked and reveled in the spectacular scenery. This cardigan is a master class in refined details. Set in sleeves with full-fashioned shoulders, a cabled lace pattern along the center front and pockets, a unique angled twisted rib cuff among other details. Worked in Hudson + West Forge the details “pop” with exquisite stitch definition.
