Bea is an airy top, straight with a boat neck and short sleeves. The pattern is placed in a V-formation that comes naturally with this pattern. It is placed mostly above the bra line so its transparency is not an issue.
The name of the lace pattern happens to be Bumble Bee because of its resemblance to my favorite pollinator and the name Bea was chosen because it is homonymous with said insect.
I figured that the pattern is distinct enough to be highly visible in my newest print version of Hempathy, the New Orange colorway, and I was right. Here shape, pattern color and yarn co-operate to create a true summer favorite. And its fairly quick and easy knitting too.
