L'Express by Espace Tricot

’Express is a top-down pullover worked in Lamana Como - an ultra-soft and uniquely light 100% superfine merino yarn. Luxurious and warm with dramatic colour-blocking at cuffs and hem, this is basically an elevated sweatshirt, perfect for everyday wear as well as for those occasions when a little casual chic is in order. Generous proportions and minimal shaping make it both modern and uber-comfortable. You will live in this!

(L’Express is named after one of our favourite Parisian-style bistros in Montreal serving French fare in a chic room with black and white checkered floors and a bar.)
