AMETHYST GLOW SWEATER by Twinset & Purl

Amethyst Glow is a boxy sweater with a deep, circular, colour work yoke and fitted sleeves in mistake rib. The colour work also has texture which adds that little something extra! Amethyst Glow is a variety of Hellebore which inspired the gorgeous colours that Sophie from Botanical Yarn dyed for our collaboration.
