Walk This Way
Walk This Way is a chic lace shell, shaped at the waist with a high collar. Imitation Embroidery is its lace, a simple 6 stitch by 6 row repeat. This design is worked bottom up, seamlessly in the round and trimmed at its hem and armholes with a wide panel rib spawned from its stitch pattern. Its collar continues the lace, that is then modified slightly for a tapered ending. Intended initially as a warm weather topper you’ll find it works well as a layered piece too, for all-season wear-ability. Enjoy!
