Seaside Brunch Shell

Lace lovers can show their pattern prowess in a smart and stylish shell or pullover! Worked primarily in classic Stockinette, the curve–conscious body sports a center panel of Staggered Fern Lace, neatly hemmed edges, and optional waist shaping. It’s knitter’s choice for a sleeveless shell or a straight–sleeved pullover to fashionably span the seasons. Body is worked seamlessly from bottom up, then divided at armholes and worked flat to shoulders. Neckband is worked vertically in rows, then sewn to neckline. For shell, stitches are picked up along arm edges to make armhole bands. For pullover, sleeves are worked seamlessly from bottom up, then sewn into armholes. Stitch patterns are both written and charted.
