I thought the lace pattern from the Drops Sea Bird top looked like rainbows so will add as a lace border to bottom of shirt.

Variations
Working bottom in the round. Cast on 192 stitches on US 5 needle. Need a multiple of 12 for the lace pattern later.

Worked 2x2 rib for 10 rounds.

After completing the lace, Increased total to 240 as my gauge was much tighter than the 20 st over 4” of the pattern. I got 26 st over 4” using a US #6 needle.
