This breezy top is the perfect addition to your summer wardrobe. Worked from side to side in one piece, the simple lace pattern is accented with contrast colored welts at the sleeves and neck.

PATTERN NOTES
This top begins with the Right Sleeve and is worked across to the right neck edge. The Front and Back are worked separately, then rejoined at the left neck edge and work continues to the Left Sleeve.
Row gauge is important in this pattern since it determines the finished body circumference of the sweater.
The stitch patterns are both written (see Stitches Used) and charted for your preference.
