Knit Simple Spring/Summer 2010 #10

design by Sandi Prosser

This elegant V-neck tank dress has a horseshoe-lace skirt, shaped by changing the number of stitches in the openwork repeats. The look is polished by a twisted cord that runs through the top row of eyelets and by a few rows of garter stitching around the neck and armholes.
