NOTES
1. Because there are an odd number of rows in the Lace Pattern repeat, the resulting fabric is reversible.
2. The back is worked from the back neck, downwards. Stitches are then worked along the opposite side of the foundation
ch to begin the first and second fronts. The first and second fronts are also worked from the shoulder, downwards.
3. Edging is worked in rounds along all edges of the body, from across the lower edge, up one front edge, across back
neck edge, and down opposite front edge.
