Fairacre

THIS SUMMERY design from Bronagh Miskelly features a lovely rosebud lace stitch on the short sleeves and upper body. Each shoulder has a buttoned opening, which gives the garment a touch of vintage style. Bronagh has used Cascade’s Heritage 4ply yarn, which is machine-washable and provides a light, draping fabric with a soft sheen.
