Product Information

The cable panels surrounding the body are as enchanting as the crowds of traveling fish through the South Pacific ocean currents.

You will be surprised how quickly your piece grows. There are a couple of non-cable rows which allows for smooth knitting. The most work you would do is C4F/B.

It’s seamless. There is no need for “sewing-up”, which means the fussy mermaid can dive into the garment as soon as you rest your hands!
