This piece is knit with the back, two fronts and sleeves as separate pieces with panels of lace in each. The seams provide the super soft yarn with stability and direction. Both the fronts and back begin at the lower edge and worked even to the armholes, which are shaped for set-in sleeves. The front bands and neck trim are picked up once the garment is sewn together.

The sleeve caps are shaped to be set-in and there is one repeat of the lace panel at the sleeve cuff to add a little scallop and flare.

Once finished a ribbon is simply threaded through the fabric of the bottom of the front trims to tie the fronts closed.
