Hydrangea Top

Hortensia is a top that consists of a fine lace pattern. The construction is very simple and is knitted from the bottom up on circular needles. At the armhole, knit back and forth through the rest of the piece and finally knit the shoulders together. The pattern includes both a diagram and a row-by-row description.

INFO: The original pattern is knitted in Løvtand from CaMaRose, a pattern has since been made with Midnatssol and both patterns are the same, but the expression is of course very different.
