Iolite is a perfect layering women’s tunic knit in Valley Yarns Northfield. This fabulous pullover features long sleeves and a mosaic-textured split shirttail and is worked in pieces and seamed for structure. Valley Yarns Northfield is a glorious blend of Merino, baby alpaca and silk that has a slight sheen, which adds sophistication to this garment, and excellent stitch definition, which makes the mosaic border pop in a strong color combination.
