This pretty little top combines eyelet lace and twisted ribbing for a gently
shaped, feminine look. The scoop neck and short sleeves make it ideal
for summer days. Wear it over jeans or dress it up - either way you'll
look fresh and charming!
Front and back are knit separately from the bottom up. Sleeves are
worked, then all seams are sewn before the simple, garter stitch
neckline is completed. Three small buttons add a pretty detail to the
front. Charts make it easier to work garment shaping in lace.

Addi Turbo Lace Knitting Circular Needles
These excellent needles from Addi Turbo offer you enhanced features for lace, sock, and texture knitting. They have sharp tips making it easier to work fine stitches; the needles are coated to give just the right amount of 'stick' so you have better control of lace stitches; and they have smooth joins between the needles and cord.
When selecting a needle size note that while the pattern has a suggested size (see above for Recommended needle size), you may need to use a different needle size in order to get gauge. If your experience with other Fiddlesticks patterns is that you have to go up or down a needle size to match gauge, then select the appropriate size.
