Drape Waistcoat
Drape Waistcoat
The waterfall front of this garment adds a fluid shape to your wardrobe while taking full advantage of the yardage Road to China Lace provides. This is worked in one piece, creating arm shaping as you go before binding off to block. A fluid garment with a gentle knitting experience to introduce you to the feel of lace weight yarn without the pressure of
lace stitches.
