Opalite
In celebration of LYS Day, we are offering 3 new free patterns that are exclusive to Manos shop owners: Zing-Zing, Opalite, and Anthias!
/////
The Fino stripe wrap is a study in color illusion: the colors of Willa are hand-picked to step up and down in color value. The result? A gorgeous wrap that appears as if it’s rippling in the breeze, thanks to the light-to-dark color palette. Opalite is knit on the bias with changing colors, so it’s a project that will keep you engaged from beginning to end!
Shown in an exclusive Fino Mini-Skein Kit for LYS Day 2020: Kit #20 Willa! Please note that Opalite requires one Fino Mini-Skein Kit and one full skein of Fino to complete.
