Delicate and breezy, Audrey Borrego’s Laureline is named after the Laurus Nobilis, or Laurel plant – inspired by this top’s intricately cabled trim resembling graceful, twisting leaves. Our Sparrow yarn, shown here in colorway Fen, is an ideal choice to show off Laureline’s sophisticated stitchwork. It is knit from the bottom up with front hems crafted flat separately and then joined to work in the round. Elegant texturing, a scooped back and a hi-lo hemline turn an otherwise basic staple into a refined statement piece.

Laureline is available as part of Linen I: Sparrow, or as a single pattern. Sample is shown in size 37” / 94 cm on a 34” / 86.5 cm, 5’ 9½“ / 176.5 cm tall model (3” / 7.5 cm positive ease). We suggest 2–6” 5–15 cm positive ease for this pattern.
