    • SABRI is a sublime blend of Organic Cotton with natural Baby Alpaca in a soft & light fingering weight.

      The 7 neutral shades on grey bases are the result of a mélange of Organic Cotton and the very rare natural black of the alpaca producing a natural warmth of tone which will suit almost any complexion, and can be blended together into beautiful gradients. Or double up for a thicker garment and play with fades.

      Sabri garments have wonderful stitch definition as well as drape.

      The Bohemian Shawl Pattern in the pics is by LuluPaquet and available on Ravelry.
