A light summer knit top embellished with dandelion flower seed stitches floating towards a lattice lace yoke. Designed to be a great introduction to lace knitting with minimal garment shaping so all focus is on the texture stitches.

Main body is knit seamlessly in the round from the bottom up and the lace yoke sections are knit flat before being joined at the shoulders.

Video Tutorial for Dandelion Stitch, Lattice Lace and 3 Needle Bind-Off methods included.
