Lush, beautifully maintained gardens gain a lacy delicacy from vines creeping up trellises and along the ground. Vinca is a top-down, seamless, V-neck, knit cardigan with a veined leaf and vine pattern trailing along the length of each arm. To finish, the button band is picked up and worked along the front and neck stitches.
