Pattern description

Knits for summer wear should be lightweight and comfortable. To achieve this result, nothing is more effective than knitted lace. This desigh is a lace sampler incorporating a pointed lace border, a thin eyelet insert, and two different easy-to-knit lace panels. The proportions and placement of the lace make this a flattering design for many figure types.
