Feature Projects
Luxe Lace Pullover
The feature project this month is the Luxe Lace pullover by Lion Brand Yarn. A light as air pullover knitted in Drops Kid-Silk. The Super Kid Mohair & Silk combination is lovely to work with. A simple lace panel on the lower front adds feminine detail. It has a loose generous fit and is just the thing to slip on over a light top or dress on a cool summer evening. Takes (4) balls to make the medium size. Model shown in colour #24 Petrol (a deep teal) Yarn for this project is 15% off (not including cost of needles). Pattern is free on Ravelry (we will print in-store for $1)
