Designed by

Rich in texture and lace, Almandine shines the spotlight on our Sparrow yarn’s strengths: its unmistakable sheen, stitch definition, and alluring color palette. Featuring an all-over mesh-like lace pattern, it only takes a couple types of crochet stitches to produce its luxurious fabric, which drapes and gathers beautifully.
