AURA
Aura is a delicate and easy wrap to knit. It was designed to perfectly fit around the shoulders and sealed with a pin, a brooch or you can also sew a pair of a hook & eye. The mohair texture really enhances the pattern. My gratitude & appreciation to my friends Lilian Santana (for modeling!!!) and Valesca Fortunato (for the Portuguese version)!
