Description
Memories of her adventurous maternal grandmother Hazel-whom everyone, including her grandchildren, called Honey-inspired Leigh Radford to design this lacy pullover. It is chockful of features that Honey would have enjoyed: multiple lace patterns, three-quarter-length sleeves, and a provocative slit at the front neck. All the lace patterns are quite simple, making this a good project for novice lace knitters.
