Title Nine Full Zip Woolicious™ Tunic ($149 )
A tunic that has it all and a versatile garment that is fitting for fall, winter, and spring wear. The Woolicious full zip tunic is dislodging my own personal dress code regarding handmade versus store bought knitwear. My drawers are full of handmade woolies as I am quite the knitter, however, several of my “masterpieces” are too bulky, showy, plainly impractical or needing constant adjusting comparatively to the Woolicious full zip tunic. Lightweight and high performing, at once comfy and flattering, the full zip tunic is the perfect layer for a smart casual and cozy look heading out or staying in.
Made with a wool blend that is high performing, soft, washable and with quick-wicking properties, called Woolicious ™ (60% extra fine Merino wool & 40% poly blend). A fine-gauge sweater, this tight knit garment drapes the body with a no-nonsense flair that is at once comfortable and a “body-skimming fit.” For ease of movement, a different knit (ribbed) extends in one color tone along the sides of the body and in a stripe design along the arms.
Attractive looking both for its slim-fitting design and subtle color scheme with stripe accents, it pairs well with jeans or tights. The Woolicious full zip tunic is available in two different colors: baby blue and black.
What’s more the Woolicious full zip tunic comes fully loaded with a hood, a full-length zipper that opens both ways, and two zippered pockets.
Reasonably priced at $149 - for it is well-made with a high end wool blend - and appears to be holding well and free of pilling. Ideal for travelling as it doesn’t wrinkle, or bulk up, with a smart casual look that will draw attention.
A perfect cover up over tights and somewhat dressy over jeans -- my Woolicious full zip tunic is getting plenty of wear and is serious competition to my collection of handknits.
