Summer bolero

This bolero jacket is perfect for spring days and summer evenings, with its lacy sleeves and generous neckline. Completely seamless, it is constructed starting from the center back to work the lacy sleeves of a shrug. Then stitches are picked up for the body, which is worked in a different lace pattern underlining the semicircular form of the piece, achieved using short rows. An attached i-cord and some rows in garter stitch are worked in a bright, contrasting color to add joy & interest.
