INTRO

Another new beginning . I was inspired by old vintage lace and wanted to create something light , breezy and also dreamy summer top that suits our tropic weather here in Indonesia. Summer is a yoke construction top , that work in round from top down seamlessly. The neck line is shape using short row and followed by full upper body lacey motif . After separating arm and body , the lower body is work in round and the sleeves are work in round lastly . You can make it crop to layer over dresses or normal body length for a daily summer top.

For the sample we have used Hand dyed Summer lux yarn from @javafiberwork. Its an organic silk base yarn 100grm / skien and 225mtr -perfect for summer heat. You can also knit this up with merino100 dk from @javafiberwork.
