Maeve, by co-founder Sloane Rosenthal, is a relentlessly practical pullover made in our Weld and The Farmer’s Daughter Fibers Mighty Mo! held together for mesmerizing results. The name Maeve is the anglicized form of the Gaelic “Madb,” which means “intoxicating” or “one who rules,” a name fitting for a wear-everywhere pullover that crowns any outfit you pair it with. This pullover is made from the bottom up and seamed. The shoulders and sides are seamed, then the sleeves are picked up at the armholes and worked in the round, as is the foldover collar. Pair it with dresses, skirts, jeans, athleisure, and even your favorite pjs at night — this is truly one to live in.
