A course by Siempre Oveja
Joice Cabrera is a self-taught designer specialized in the confection of oversized sweaters and the founder of the brand Siempre Oveja. She's managed to spread her passion for wool, colors, and textures to all corners of the globe.
Making sweaters came to her in a moment of crisis, as instinctively as throwing on a life jacket, and has allowed her to learn to understand her emotions, experimenting with the shapes and patterns that come to her naturally.
