NOTES
• For techniques you don’t know, please visit our online knitting glossary at www.interweave.com/interweave-knitting-glossary.

• The Lace pattern is worked with CC only in Rows 1–2; it is worked with MC and CC held together in Rows 3–6. Do not break MC; carry it up the side edge of the piece until it is needed again.

• Maintain pattern as much as possible while working armhole and neck shaping. If there are not enough stitches to work both a yarnover and its accompanying decrease, work leftover stitches in Stockinette st.

• The yarn used for the sample has been discontinued. To substitute for Spring Street, look for a fingering-weight wool. To substitute for Forever Lace, look for a lace-weight wool/bamboo or wool/silk blend.
