Kyyhky
Kyyhky is a delicate little summer top with lace at the top and the hem. It’s worked seamlessly top down. You will first work the back and front yoke separately, then join them at the underarm to work the hem in the round. Last, you will pick up stitches from the edges of the yoke to work i-cord straps for the shoulders. The lace has both charted and written instructions. There are instructions for an optional bust dart.
