LACY TOP

Vogue Knitting Holiday 2006 #19
Design by James Coviello

Coviello’s lovely lacy vest features a flouncy feather-and-fan stitch at the armholes and around the lower edge. A deep U-neck and full-fashioned shaping make for a courtly silhouette, while an unexpected velvet-ribbon bow displays cheek.
