Lacy Ruffles

"This easy design is decorated with pretty ruffles around the collar, hem, and sleeves. With a lightweight yarn and frilly cap sleeves, this sweater is perfect for sunny summer weather. It can be worn over a long sleeve shirt for cooler weather too. It's made from the top down, mostly in double crochet, so it works up quickly. The adorable model in the picture is wearing a sample that’s 1 size too big for her."
