Trillium Lake is the perfect top to knit up fast for warmer weather or to layer under a sweater or jacket. It’s simple elegance with classic lines and a touch of lace. Picture it over a linen skirt, shorts, summer pants, or your favorite jeans.
The lace at the wide neckline is much easier than it looks. And the hybrid yoke gives you the best of both worlds – it starts with the circular method for easy lace and transitions into raglan seams for superior fit (and the ability to raise your arms without exposing everything!).
Construction is top-down and in the round in a completely seamless manner so that you can try it on and have no surprises at the end. Plus, there is no finishing to be done except for weaving in a few ends.
The neckline finish is worked first and in a way that provides structure to keep it from stretching out. Short rows lower and shape the front neck (by raising the back neckline) and short rows also optionally provide for an angled hemline for a bit of added length in the back.
The angled hemline is flattering on many figure types and makes for comfortable wearing. Sleeves can easily be made longer.
This design will look great in any yarn that meets gauge and has good drape and decent stitch definition.
Sizing is inclusive with intended ease of at least 4 inches / 10 cm.
