The eggs have been found, the ham was eaten, and now it is time to get back to work! I am happy to introduce the next pattern in my Dreaming of Egypt collection. Say hello to Dahshur, a lacy short sleeve pullover.
Inspired by some of the oldest pyramids in Egypt, Dahshur is a raglan-sleeved pullover featuring a textured lace stitch pattern and a high-low hem. Worked in one piece from the top down, the body is worked straight then uses short rows to create a curved hem. Edges are finished with Garter stitch. Dahshur is intended to be worn with 0-2” ease in the bust. Shown with no ease.
I used the lusciously soft Lorna's Laces Honor, an alpaca and silk blend. While I wouldn't wear alpaca in hot and sticky weather, this yarn was nice and cozy for a day with a cool spring breeze. The different stitch textures highlight the color variations in hand-dyed Honor.
