Introducing PURPLEWING, a stunning vintage Austrian cardigan from the renowned label Wolkenstricker. This exquisite piece, handcrafted in the 1990s, is made from a luxurious blend of wool and alpaca. With its heavyweight, chunky knit design, it’s as cozy as it is striking.
The cardigan showcases a delicate and harmonious color palette, featuring rich cobalt blue, deep purple, rakhi green, and teal hues. His stripe pattern, intricate popcorn knit detailing, and dramatic mutton sleeves make him a true work of art. Fastening the cardigan are Wolkenstricker's signature wooden buttons, each adorned with the distinctive stitched "W."
