The All About That Drape Top

When I picked up my latest haul of Lion Brand Truboo, inspiration struck, and I knew instantly what it was going to become. A flattering, graceful cowl-neck top.
This top features a pretty combination of lacy and solid bands of stitching. The construction is simple, worked from the bottom up with minimal sewing at the shoulders and underarms. The result is a light, airy top with loads of style and all the drape!
