Perfect for bridal, evening wear, and special occasions. Rough mock-ups illustrate some options.

Stranded with 2 strands of 1 color throughout to create heavenly depth and body with fine fingering weight yarn (18 wpi), also called twining. Advantage of finer stitches and drape, rather than boxy clunky styling of chunkier yarn.

Beads added easily one at a time.

Beaded Chanel collar has knit undercollar.

Tightly knit faced picot front edging adds structure and support to prevent rolling. Crisp hemmed body and cuff edges.
