An elegant tee-shaped top with a pretty centre front and back lacy panel, with ridges running attractively through it.
The sleeves and lower edges are finished with a dainty rouleau effect edging.
There is no neck border to add on, as it is worked in with the front and back - easy and no fuss.
This design can be easily lengthened if you wish, by working more repeats of the 12 row pattern before shaping the neck.
