This pattern is a light lace spring top with peplum, to wear with shorts, capris or a skirt for a simple summer dinner or brunch. A great accessory for spring or summer, this piece can be layered over a basic camisole or tank. Dress it up for a wedding reception with strappy sandals and dangling earrings.

The name Clementine is from my grandfather, who used to sing “oh my darlin’, oh my darlin’, oh my darlin’ Clementine.” Although a gruff, John-Wayne-type, he picked pink Sweet William for my grandmother when they were courting.
