Naomi is a special knitting project for those who love lace patterns. It is worked in single pieces and sewn together in the end. The cardigan has a slim cut and is intended to fit with about 3” - 4” 8 - 10 cm of positive ease at bust.

Naomi is a is a slightly more elegant and classy cardigan, knitted here from a silver-grey linen yarn. Perfect for your grand entrance in summer nights ;-)

You should be very familiar in knitting lace patterns, as you have to adjust the yarn overs and the decreases within the pattern once the decreases for the V-neck and armholes are worked (this technique is NOT explained in the pattern).
