Halcyon

ETHEREAL AND incredibly soft, this lightweight A-line top by Lisa Richardson features a beautiful lace stitch pattern. It has a V neckline on one side of the garment and a crew neck on the other, and has been designed so that it can be worn either way round. It’s worked in the round to the armholes. Lisa has used Rowan’s Cashmere Haze, a luxurious blend of baby alpaca, cashmere and silk which is available in eight neutral and pastel colours.
