Delicate
Comfortable and soft, made in our alpaca, silk and cashmere yarn – just pure heaven to touch and to wear. DELICATE can be dressed up for twilight. Just a little something to throw over when the darkness descends and the air becomes chilly, or to wear mooching about your home over your pyjamas.
Uncomplicated and effortless to make – worked in 3 pieces (lace motif section and simple stocking stitch section), joined at the shoulders by the 3 needle cast-off method, then the collar edging and sleeve edgings are worked. Fasten with a shawl-pin from our collection, or as a floaty waterfall poncho-style wrap.
ENJOY!
Bestest of wishes
