This cropped top has a lot of unique details, like the chevron lace border and a lace peekaboo in the neckline. Limolicious is the high summer piece of the Wavy Collection.

NOTES ON CONSTRUCTION
Limolicious is knitted seamlessly from the bottom up, starting with a lace hem and completed with a Stockinette body.
The top is worked in the round up to the underarms. Front and back are worked flat and the straps are joined in the shoulders with a three needle bind off.
Whether you prefer working the lace pattern with charts or written instructions, this pattern has got you covered.
My sample was knitted in DK weight yarn, in a mix of silk and linen, but it works equally well in wool, cotton, linen, silk, or any mixture of them.
