Enjoy this pretty necklace pattern as a forever free download. I would love it if you added it to your faves~ Thanks much and happy knitting!

Invert, the name of this beautiful necklace describes the look of the lace tips facing inwards, rather than pointing away from the neck as most designs do. Why not be a bit different, right?

The necklace is knitted flat, from the bottom up with two garter stitch edges flanking the lace repeats to allow for buttonhole and button to be placed.

The blocked measurements are 20” in length and 1.25” in height.
The pattern is fully written and offers a lace chart as well.
