Fittonia
Touches of lace circle the yoke and decorate each side of Fittonia, adding a bit of fancy to its wearable, gentle a-line shape. Knit top down in Miss Babs Katahdin, this seamless pullover is drapey and delicate with a graceful neck opening, three quarter sleeves, and a split high-low hem - an elegant choice for layering over a camisole or simple dress. Whether you knit it in a vibrant jewel tone for winter holiday parties or a muted pastel for a more casual aesthetic, the shape and details of Fittonia are sure to catch compliments wherever you go!
