Eglantine

ELEMENTS DK from West Yorkshire Spinners is a blend of wool and Tencel which is ideal for summer garments, as it provides a light, draping and lustrous fabric. It’s available in 10 sorbet shades, and has been used by Caroline Birkett to create this elegant, long-line shell top. The front is decorated with a zigzag pattern of lace, while the back piece is worked in reverse stocking stitch, and is longer than the front, with a deep lower rib and split side seams.
