Peony Lace is a feminine, form fitting lace tee worked in a fingering weight yarn. Top-down, seamless construction allows you to try on the garment as you go, determining the fit that you prefer. Twisted stitch ribbing gives a neat and polished finish to the edges. This top would be a perfect garment to work with a skein or two of a special hand dyed yarn paired with a tonal main color.
