Fleur

A lovely summery design with inset lacy panels against a background of reverse stocking stitch. There’s just a little shaping to give enough gentle ease from the lower edge to just under the bust - very flattering! The underarm shaping on the yoke forms a semi-dolman appearance - nothing clingy. The sleeves have a centre rib panel to ensure a neat fit and are worked top down on this design.
