PATTERN NOTES
This yarn is knitted at the top end of its
needle size suggestion to add drape
to the body of the fabric. Trims are still
knitted tightly to help give a great shape
to the draped fabric.
TIPS
Wet inishing the piece will help the fabric
bloom and stabilise. Note that the stitch
count over the lace panel changes on the
WS rows, so only count total sts on RS
rows for a total stitch count for shapings.
