Annulaire

During a breathtaking annular eclipse a few summers ago, I watched my son stand in front of the window, casting mesmerizing patterns of little eclipses on his shirt due to the unique design of our window blinds. Inspired by this beautiful moment, I envisioned a stunning lace pattern that would make a lovely embellishment for a knitted top. After experimenting with various yarns, I successfully created this enchanting effect using a simple lace pattern based on the classic Feather and Fan technique. The rest of the Eclipse Top features a flattering soft v-neck, an elegant empire waist, and subtle pleats that add to its charm. Crafted with delicate fingering weight yarn, this top is designed to be lightweight and airy, making it perfect for warm-weather wear. Originally published as the Eclipse Top in Knitscene, the updated pattern, now titled "Annulaire," offers an expanded size range and streamlined pattern instructions, catering to a wider variety of knitters.
