Amalia’s graceful hem is the centerpiece of this delightfully simple shell, worked in our linen Sparrow. Cleverly joined garter-stitch panels on the front and back create a graceful flutter at the bottom edge. Subtle garter stitch trims at neck and armholes complete the simplified beauty of this piece, designed by Pam Allen.
