This is a delicate top, knitted from 2 100g skeins of lace weight yarn. This lace pattern looks complicated, but is really easy to knit. The body of the tee is knit from the bottom up, on circular needles and then back and forth once divided for the armholes. The sleeves are ¾ length and are knitted in the round until shaping for the top of the arm. The finished top is given in 3 sizes, the picture shows the middle size, which is approx. UK 12-14 and is knitted in Native Yarns Framlingham BFL & Silk Lace in the Erica shade.

Approximate Sizing
I’ve designed this top to be worn as a loose floaty garment; it’s easy and flattering to wear with skirts, over dresses or jeans and is designed to skim the top of the hips.
