Waterlillies
Inspired by the paintings of Monet’s Garden, Waterlillies is a

Simple ribs and delicate lace frame the body while gentle stripes of tonal colours work their magic to create a “masterpiece” in knitting. Oversized sleeves complete the look making a very comfortable garment to wear throughout the hottest of Summers.
