Decious by Mel Kennelly

Designed to pair polished style with ultimate comfort, Decious features ribbed trims, a cozy funnel neck, and a relaxed, oversized fit. The body is knit flat in pieces from the bottom up, with the sleeves picked up and worked down in the round. Sweatshirts have met their match with Decious; it offers the same snuggly feel with a graceful flair.
