Butterflies - The Free Spirit
Oceans · Level: Beginner plus
Part of Oceans – my collection inspired by movement, lightness and natural flow. Butterflies is a light, airy cardigan with raglan, lace pattern and a short back. A narrow choker neck and button closure give it a delicate, feminine look, while the wide sleeves give a soft movement inspired by butterflies.
Light. Feminine. Airy.
