Allegro Using Shibui Silk Cloud
The Design
No returns on sale items, please. Dyelots may vary.
This cloud-light top has a simple, cropped silhouette that’s sweet and striking at the same time! From designer Jane Veitenheimer for Shibui, Allegro is knit in one piece back and forth from the front to the back. With a sheer fabric, it’s pretty worn over a dress or sleeveless top.
In Shibui Silk Cloud, Allegro is silky bliss! A miraculous blend of silk and mohair, this lace-weight yarn lends a weightless luster to the delicate, open stitch. In Silk Cloud, Allegro is so pretty and light, it practically floats!
