A truly pretty sweater for summer - or any season.
The main body of the sweater consists of small “medallion” leaf panels which alternate on the single rib background stitch. This may look complicated but it is easy to work.
The yoke is in a 4 row eyelet lace pattern - wrong-side rows are all purl.
The sleeves are in stocking stitch with a simple rib cuff.
The V neck is edged to match the lower border.
