We had to wait until we moved into our new, larger location before offering In the Piazza as a kit. It was very hard to wait so long before sharing a design that we love so very much. In the Piazza is one of those perfect sweaters - beautiful texture, flowing drape, look-great-on-anyone design. It's knit simply using 2 strands of Woolie Silk 3-ply throughout and arriving at one of the greatest looks ever. We think Ilga is simply a genius at the glories of a simple yet edgy form. And I personally can't wait to add several of these to my own wardrobe.
