A close-fitting lacy camisole with waist shaping, Pencil Sketch is fun to knit and fab to wear. Knit it in silk or a silk blend and you are cool for summer. The neck opening is a hybrid between V, scoop, and wrap. The lower edge and the sleeve openings are finished with ribbing, while the neck opening has a random picot edging.
