Notes

I had the absolute pleasure of testing the Vantis Peplum Pattern for White Owl Crochet Co! A great pattern to follow with detailed instructions and charts! The peplum will need to be blocked once completed, to really emphasize the gorgeous lace-work!

A cropped, zero ease raglan style peplum that features pineapple stitches and capped sleeves. Very easy to elongate the body, if that is more your style! I tested the size 4/34” chest and I have a 33” chest and a 34-35” bust.

I decided to add 6 rows to my raglan, it measured 11” before blocking, after washing and blocking the lace only, my raglan portion stretched an inch in all measurements (merino yarn stretches with washing) making it a slight boxy for rather than fitted like intended in design. I still love the final look, but if I made it again I would made the size 3 instead blush

My favourite garment of 2019!
