Dancing in the Moonlight is a cosy wrap, knitted with two yarns held together. It’s designed to keep you snug as the weather gets cooler and with a timeless lacework pattern, it will make a good seasonal staple in your Autumn/ Winter wardrobe.

Alternatively, it would make a lovely luxury gift for a friend (and it’s nearly that time of year..!)

This is a one size item
