This stunning project is worked from the top down with a circular yoke that gradually increases in its cascading diamond lace pattern until separated for body and sleeves. Once you’ve separated for body and sleeves, follow the directions to make either the top or the dress. Conveniently, you can continue working both the top and the dress until it reaches your desired length.

This project is light and breezy for hot temperatures and incredibly fashionable. Wear it with the buttons in the back for a delicate high neck or with buttons in front done or undone, depending on your desired look.
