Top down, deep scoop neck, raglan increases with lace bell sleeves, waist shaping, lace skirt, garter stitch & eyelet button bands worked from sts picked up along front edges, Picot BO hem & cuffs. Because of the very loose gauge, no buttonholes are required – you will be able to fasten the buttons by pressing them between sts. Please choose a size that allows for about 0 – 2” of negative ease.
