(close up)
This knit reminds me of a Monet painting! The fiber is nylon but feels like cotton and the spandex gives it good crosswise stretch but no lengthwise stretch. It has a narrow (1/8″) ribbon like stripe spaced 1″ apart. On top of the stripes are clear sequins that give a very subtle sparkle. Each sequin is spaced 1-1/4″ apart. The color way has shades of magenta, lavender and lemon yellow on a charcoal grey background. Make a fabulous t-shirt or dress for the holidays.
