The little lace motif in the center of this sweater is called “Variation Honeybee” from one of Barbara Walker’s stitch dictionaries. I have always loved it so I combined it with my favorite “Honeycomb” brioche stitch for this cute little sweater. A split hem and bracelet length sleeves have made this a go-to piece in my handmade wardrobe.
