Dive into the cozy embrace of asymmetrical cables and airy lace, crafting a yoke that flows like gentle waves, mirroring the beauty of nature’s own artwork.

This design was inspired by Argentina’s breathtaking Rainbow Mountains, fondly referred to as Cerro de Los Catorce Colores by locals.

Every stitch whispers of the relaxed vibes and stunning vistas that sparked its creation. The designed is perfect for those vibrant, hand-painted yarns that just beg to be shown off.
