Dark purple with cropped sleeves that come down to the elbow. The edges are trimmed in a laced, woven strip of real rabbits fur. Beautiful knitted flowers and ruffles further decorated this sweater. it is in excellent barely used condition although there are strips of rabbit fur trim that are placed unevenly and tied together, especially at the bottom hem. I tried to show this in the last photo. This is an open cardigan, no closure in front.
