Apricot Float

Apricot Float is a delicate lace top, lighter and daintier than the froth of a summer cocktail, with a simple but beautiful motif. Doubling the stitches at the waist creates movement and shape down to the hips, and short sleeves give the top a summery cool wearability. The garment is knit top down, in the round; sleeves are then picked up and knit in the round. The I-cord cast off gives the edging weight and structure.
