SOFT LIMA KNIT | Shell
SOFT LIMA KNIT | Shell
I'm a luxurious and buttery soft midweight knit with a lovely, weighty drape. The knitting technique allows for some stretch but I do not contain elastane so I have less recovery than a stretch knit fabric.
I would make a scrumptious t-shirt, top, cardigan, simple dress or loungewear set. My beautiful texture and slight sheen offers a more elegant look than jersey or other knit fabrics. I'm a bit fancy.

We do our best to give you an accurate snap of our beautiful fabric and yarn but we know (from experience) that screen displays can be misleading and nothing beats seeing and feeling it in person. This is why we offer samples for purchase, so you can feel confident in your choices.

ECOVERO™ Viscose is produced by sustainable textile giant LENZING AG and it has a significantly smaller environmental footprint compared to generic viscose. It is made from wood pulp sourced from sustainably managed forests certified by FSC or PEFC. It requires half as much water and energy than generic viscose and the chemicals used in production are recovered and reused reducing emissions by 50%.
