It’s no surprise that the airy lace motif on the Seashell top was inspired by its namesake. Imagine pretty little seashells washed clean by the gentlest waves of clear, salty water. In the centre of each square cut-out, fan-shaped clusters of stitches represent fluted shells, like scallops and cockles.
