Simple Lace Pullover
The simple lace pattern in this pullover creates a textured, bias-type fabric that gives a soft drape to its’ casual fit. Columns of stockinette stitch at the raglan, side and sleeve “seams” lend structure to the airiness of the lace.
This pattern calls for a fingering weight yarn held together with a lace weight mohair blend yarn to allow the fluffiness to “fill in” the eyelets and produce a garment that is lightweight yet warm. Alternatively, you could use a worsted weight yarn with a fluffy/hazy characteristic held single throughout.
