Notes from the Designer:

Embrace your inner romantic with the effortlessly beautiful Pansy Top. This delicate, floral, lace creation is the perfect blend of simple stitches and beautiful style. Pansy flowers are a symbol of love and romance, from the French “pensée," meaning thoughtfulness and remembrance. This top is knit from the bottom up with straightforward shaping. The delicate pansy lace panel at the bottom accentuates the v-neck bustline. Pansy is ideal for knitters ready to take their knitting to new heights. This top is a must-have for your wardrobe.

• Slipped stitches are worked purlwise with yarn held in front.
