Dinard’s bright red colour, lace edgings and sexy keyhole back add a saucy “je ne sais quoi” to this collection. It can be worn with any of the other pieces of La Bretagne or on it’s own. This yarn is gorgeously soft and wonderful next to the skin but I wouldn’t risk swimming in it as that may make it stretch! Details Below
