The one-piece Begonia Pullover begins at the bottom with a leaf lace pattern that’s worked around the body and shifts to a broken-rib-stitch pattern that fl ows up through the ballet neck. There is no waist shaping, and the long sleeves and body are joined for raglan-shoulder shaping in the heavenly baby alpaca-silk yarn.
