Drawing inspiration from the delicate beauty of the Parnassia flower, this pullover is a harmonious blend of nature and elegance. The intricate lace design reflects the flower’s graceful symmetry, with soft textures and gentle curves woven into every detail. The organic lace pattern mirrors the veins of the Parnassia petals, while a playful ruffle adds a romantic touch to the design. It is designed for those who appreciate both fashion and nature’s poetry.
Knit seamlessly from the top down in the round, it features a closely fitted round yoke that showcases a beautifully detailed, petal-like pattern. The boxy body offers a relaxed yet refined silhouette, complemented by tapered sleeves for a balanced fit. Subtle lace elements adorn the side panels, hem and cuffs, adding a touch of delicate sophistication.
