Universal Yarn

Elixir Top

Designed by Rachel Brockman

A dash of lace, a sprinkle of tweed, and a touch of fanciful fringe are the key ingredients in Elixir. This lively spring and summer top is knit in eco-friendly Bella Tweed for a piece that’s beautiful, breathable, and sustainable. Primarily worked in soothing Stockinette, the upper body is adorned with elegant eyelets while mini fringes playfully trim the armholes and hem.
