This lacy top which I originally designed for Knitting Magazine has been revamped for 2020!

Unfortunately the yarn I originally designed the top in has since been discontinued and I love wearing this top in the summer months so decided to create another one in a yarn which can still be purchased which knits up to the same tension as the previous yarn and has the same yarn qualities and feel.

This is a beautiful soft and delicate lace top.

I love the fact that the top only requires 1 skein for the first three sizes and 2 skeins for the last 3 sizes which means it can be made in a luxurious yarn.

The top is knitted in the round up until the armhole shaping where it is divided for the back and front.

The only sewing required is on the shoulders.

The knitting pattern can now be purchased direct from my Ravelry Page.

The lace pattern finishes so beautifully around the armholes and neckline that the top doesn’t require any additional edge finishing.
