This oversized, versatile lace topper offers three-season wear, and is worked in Valley Yarns’ cotton and bamboo blend Southwick for beautiful soft drape. Its falling leaves pattern and wide V-Neck provide just enough warmth on a cool summer evening, and, in addition, it makes a very pretty bathing suit cover-up. In the fall, it’s a great outer layer.

Kit available here.
