Curving Lilies by RosyPosy Designs

A sweet wrap just right for the changing seasons. 


The form of the lily was often used by artists of the Art Nouveau movement, as the graceful flower lent itself well to curves. RosyPosy's Curving Lilies is a top-down shawl with a gentle crescent shape framed in a delicate border of lilies hanging upside down.  

Depending on the size (and how much warmth you want) work it in 475 to 700 yards of a DK or Worsted weight yarn.
Simply adore RosyPosy's knitwear designs? See them all at RosyPosy Designs.
