I love this lace pattern! There’s a lot of detail in the lace, so I chose to keep the shape of the piece very simple. The body is worked in the round to the armholes, then stitches are cast on for the sleeves, and the back and front are worked separately to the beginning of shoulder shaping. The shoulders are shaped using short rows or bind-offs – your choice.

The lace pattern is presented in both written and charted formats.
