Corsage by Rosemary Drysdale

Craft: Knitting

A pattern featuring NORO yarn Akari.

Drysdale’s top is pretty in violet AKARI #10 Kaizu. Front and back are worked from the eyelet-rib hem to the entrelac yoke. The open nature of lace entrelac widens the yoke and forms the cap sleeves. The rectangles are knit in a botanical lace pattern.
