Named in honor of the two traditional lace patterns used, Leaf & Vine is an elegant, oversized cardigan with very short sleeves. It floats to just below the full hip in its full-length version, with a shorter version stopping just below the waist.

Worked flat in pieces from the bottom up, Leaf & Vine begins with a garter stitch border before moving into columns of lace panels. Vine Lace is used in the center back, sides and front edges and Trellis-framed Leaf Pattern (Trellis Lace) forms the rest of the fabric. Pattern repeats are manipulated to maintain symmetry across the garment.

Lace patterns are written and charted.

Sample is 44.5” full length; model is 34”
