A dowry find from the Victorian era, this silky, loose-fitting top
can make you feel as though you belong to another slower-paced era. Knit
in a delicate lace pattern, in three pieces, it is joined at the shoulders
with a three-needle bind off. Short rows, giving shaping at the shoulders,
allow the tapered fronts to lie evenly.
Over a long-sleeved shirt, this light-as-air top serves as a vest.
Over a camisole, it becomes the barest cover-up.
It is equally beautiful knit in silk, in cotton, in linen, or in a
fine-quality wool.
Shown in Fleece Artist’s Handmaiden “Lady
Godiva” (50 % silk, 50% wool)
