A pretty lace cardigan worked in a DK-weight merino silk blend, with a deep V-neck and three-quarter sleeves. The body is worked flat in pieces, which are seamed together before picking up for the sleeves and working them in the round. Lace chain columns are mirrored around the body and finished with simple garter stitch edgings.
