This lacy topper is knit in 3 pieces: the back and 2 fronts (knit at same time for ease). Yarn overs and double yarn overs create the lacy look and make it a quick knit that uses surprisingly little yarn. I used a cotton/viscose/linen yarn to create soft drape and cool comfort. Unblocked, it has a bohemian look; blocked, it creates sharp seams and edges and has a sophisticated touch.
It is knit on single pointed needles and uses a third needle for a 3 needle bind off at the shoulders.
