This is the perfect dressy sleeveless sweater to party in, but is equally at home on a more casual outing! The front neckline is slightly rounded and accented with a beautiful textured lace motif, imitating a necklace, from which it draws its name. This top is worked in pieces from the bottom up in Stocking stitch, seamed at the shoulders, and a pretty trim is worked along the neckline and armholes. It's knit in Nettle Soft DK for breathability and that little bit of extra cozy for a cool evening out.
