Amaryllis

$8.00

Amaryllis combines classic top-down, seamless construction with a flattering “wear with anything” A-line silhouette, which drapes perfectly with the Serena yarn. The marled effect created by holding 2 strands of Serena in different colors together creates a beautiful, speckled fabric that not only adds visual interest but also provides an opportunity to play with different color combinations to create your own unique look.

This pattern is part of the Fairmount Fibers Spring 2021 Collection is available as an individual pattern on their website (click button below to purchase on their site). Or you can purchase on Ravelry.
