Pattern notes
The hooded lace two piece is versatile and can be dressed up or down depending on the weather or occasion. Using natural fibers like Drops Alpaca keeps you warm with minimal effort but if u live in a warmer climate you might want to use cotton or acrylic yarn. The lace pattern will have u glued to this project and it creates a gorgeous scalloped hemline.
The top is worked in the round from bottom up. Front and back are separated at the underarms and worked flat. shoulders are joined with three-needle bind-off. Stitches for hood are picked up and worked in flat, separated into three equal parts, decreased and bound off.
