MALAINN

Malainn ~ single printed pattern** 

Malainn is a place to be slowly arrived at.  So that one’s amazement might grow, then abate, after every bend, in preparation for what is around the next.

A cropped, front-back reversible pullover with dramatic cowl neck, Málainn draws its inspiration from the zig-zag lanes which lead to Malin Head. Worked from the top down in one piece with saddle shoulder construction, this design features vertical panels of undulating lacework that extend from the tip of the neckline to the edges of the sleeves.
