Gorgeous medium weight lambswool cardigan sweater by collectible designer/manufacturer Ballantyne of Scotland.
The color is a lovely medium brown which I have not seen before in Ballantyne sweaters.
Does up the center front with seven flat silver tone metal buttons as pictured.
Both sides of the front placket are lined with matching grosgrain ribbon for stability.
Round ribbed collar as pictured.
Unlined with wrist length sleeves.
This cardigan is "full-fashioned" meaning it was knit into shape, rather than being cut and sewn from a flat piece of knit fabric.
