Shaggy Mohair Cardigans, Nevermind the Shedding

Mohair, one of the shaggy fabrics of the 1950’s that never completely went away, yet never had another heyday like its mid-century origin, has come back onto the scene for another cup of coffee. Beams+, a brand not shy to show it’s love for 50’s styling, is among those employing the material this season and they’ve fashioned this knit cardigan to draw your attention.

Loud and proud, Beams+ has designed this shaggy sweater with a color-panel pattern that both harkens back to the 50’s and draws your attention to that very fact. With a classic cardigan cut, not unlike the mohair cardigan Kurt Cobain famously wore in the 90’s, this one has the expected details like a dropped open neck with four-button placket and patch pockets towards its hem. It’s a loud cardigan, and it knows it.

Available for $295CAD (~$230USD) at Lost And Found.
