When the days get longer and warmer, you don’t have to put away your knitting. It’s just time to knit lighter, more summery projects like this sweet vintage-inspired lace belt!

The belt is knitted in the round with an delicate lace pattern using a fine weight yarn. It’s an engaging project even though it’s small, and once you’re done, you don’t even have to wait until winter to wear it.
