This simple swath of stockinette stitch always pays homage to a favorite yarn with frank clarity. It also happens to be exactly what we want to wear day in and day out!

In mohair-wool-and-silk Brume, the Elementary Wrap is incredibly soft; it’s a little bit fluffy; it’s wonderfully warm; it’s airy and light; and most of all, it’s absolutely beautiful!

Brume comes in 25 inspiring colors, including this incredibly gorgeous Golden Lichen. In that strange world where it seems green and orange have mixed to form yellow, this color is our kind of mystery!
