"A Victoria Lace Border adds romance & femininity to this beautiful linen cardigan," says Louet. "Knit in one piece to the underarm, it is then divided for the fronts and back. Small buttons that start at the top of the border finish off the look." We do not think often enough of the graceful, lacy possibilities of linen for our bodies (bath and bed, all the time). And yet linen is a magnificent fibre for clothing; durable, stitch-defining, and machine washable and dryable. This is a lovely pattern with set-in sleeves, beautiful diagrams of short-rowing on the knit and purl sides, a size range that fits older girls as well. All lace is written out only.
